Expedited Food Assistance for Missouri
Due to the federal government shutdown, Governor Mike Kehoe announced measures to expedite food assistance for at-risk Missourians, who may lose November Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits.
The Missouri Department of Social Services is prepared to issue SNAP benefits as soon as the federal government reopens. To support those in need, Governor Kehoe has:
- Transferred $10.6 million from the Senior Services Growth and Development Fund to Missouri Area Agencies on Aging.
- Ordered a $5 million distribution to Missouri food banks using Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funding.
SNAP benefits are fully funded by the federal government, with recipients receiving benefits via their Electronic Benefit Transfer card.
