The government shutdown means SNAP will be disrupted as of 11/1. Our team will hold outreaches to help people apply for SNAP & find food assistance. (Those approved for SNAP after 11/1 will not receive benefits until shutdown ends or other federal funding is approved.) otda.ny.gov/snap-benefit...

FeedMore WNY and our partner hunger-relief agencies are preparing for a food crisis. More than 201,000 of our community members will lose their SNAP benefits if the government shutdown continues past Nov. 1. Visit feedmorewny.org to give back or to find food assistance.

As the government shutdown continues, SNAP may be disrupted in November. And, NYS' waiver of SNAP work requirements for certain able-bodied adults without dependent children will end next month. We spoke with News 4 WIVB about the impact this could have in WNY. www.wivb.com/news/local-n...
