Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients whose households lost food as a result of severe storms may request a replacement of benefits up to the monthly amount received for May 2019.
Some families served by the Department of Human Services may have been impacted due to a loss of power for an extended period or flooding.
"We are extremely saddened about the devastation and loss so many of our neighbors have experienced," said Patrick Klein, director of Adult and Family Services. "While people are getting back on their feet, we want them to know DHS is here to help them. We encourage families who have been affected to request a replacement of their benefits immediately."
