You may have heard that the State and Federal Public Health Emergency declarations will be ending. This will have an impact on SNAP households who have been receiving additional emergency allotment for the past 2 years. SNAP households will see a reduction in benefits to the pre-pandemic monthly amount.

Some ways to help with this change in benefits are:

- If able to, households can roll over your EBT benefits to the next month. This may help “cushion” the impact of the reduction in benefits.

- Stock up on non-perishable items now, while you have the additional benefits. Click on this link for tips on stocking your pantry: English; Spanish
