A campaign launched at the Nonprofit Legislative Roundtable on June 30, OneTable QC transforms today’s dialogue into tomorrow’s Awareness, Advocacy, and Action.

When federal budgets shift, local lives shift. You’re invited to pull up a seat, see the data, hear the stories, and take action as Quad Cities nonprofits, donors, and legislators respond to federal budget changes.

Real-Time Impact Dashboard

Why It Matters

Federal budget changes, like SNAP reductions, Medicaid eligibility changes, and housing-voucher freezes, translate into very real local pain:

  • up to 10,000 Community Health Care patients could lose Medicaid coverage

  • 47,000 people could lose access to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) according to River Bend Food Bank

  • Key Data Point #3 (Housing)
