SNAP Benefits Approved for Terrebonne Parish

Monday September 06, 2021 09:00 am - 1415 Views - Posted By Office of Homeland Security & Emergency Preparedness 		SNAP Benefits Approved for Terrebonne Parish

Please note that the pre-registration prompt is registration.
 
Recipients of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits in 18 Louisiana parishes impacted by #HurricaneIda will receive automatic 55% replacement benefits due to power outages affecting at least half of their residents, following a waiver approval from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service (FNS).
  • 55% of each household’s monthly allotment for August – will automatically be loaded onto recipients' SNAP EBT cards on September 11.
  • SNAP recipients in other impacted parishes who lost food purchased with SNAP benefits due to a power outage of 24 straight hours or more can request benefits by submitting a completed and signed SNAP 38 form to DCFS. The deadline for requesting replacements due to Hurricane Ida is September 28. SNAP clients may need to provide documentation from their utility company verifying their power outage. This can take time so residents are advised to request their verification documents as soon as possible.
More information, including online and printable SNAP 38 forms, can be found at www.dcfs.la.gov/SNAPstorms.
