I am also concerned that, following staffing cuts in 2025, USDA has failed to fill critical positions that support coordination with the Department of Veterans Affairs on veteran hunger.

Through her tireless service, Debbie has provided hope to families during their most difficult moments and helped countless women pursue brighter futures.

Her passion for helping others also led her to establish Working Women Winning, a program that equips women with the skills, connections, and opportunities necessary to build rewarding careers and achieve financial stability.

Inspired by her own journey as a single mother, she created The Flora May Foundation which provides parents with free counseling, crisis assistance, and other critical resources.

For nearly a decade, Debbie has devoted herself to making sure families have the resources and support they need when life presents its greatest challenges.

Michaelle’s determination has connected families across the globe and helped launch new research into a disorder shared by fewer than 100 children worldwide.

Instead, they founded the Cure KCNH1 Foundation and set out to build related scientific research and inspire hope that did not yet exist for families like theirs.

Head Start is not just preschool. For hundreds of thousands of children from low-income families, it is where they learn to read, receive basic health screenings, get support for disabilities, and begin kindergarten with a real chance to…
