Chantille Manuel

Chantille Manuel is a Florida resident who has made significant strides in her life over the past five years, achieving five years of recovery from addiction and losing over 140 pounds. Despite her successes, she faces ongoing challenges in securing enough food for herself and relies on food assistance from local churches and government programs like SNAP. As one of the millions of Americans affected by the potential expiry of critical food benefits due to a government shutdown, she expresses a strong desire to become self-sufficient.
