Residents in hardest-hit counties qualify for a month of grocery expenses.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced that those most impacted by the recent hurricanes qualify for its Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (D-SNAP). Residents in the most impacted counties are eligible for one month of grocery assistance, with 982,930 households in Georgia, 152,572 households in North Carolina, and 54,692 households in Tennessee eligible to qualify.
“USDA is committed to making sure that families, farmers and communities impacted by recent hurricanes get the support they need, including help with grocery expenses as people grapple with significant disruption to their lives,” said Secretary Tom Vilsack. “The Biden-Harris Administration, including USDA, will do everything in our power to help you respond, recover and rebuild – no matter how long it takes.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For Secretary Vilsack to seek the Lord’s wisdom as he heads the Agriculture Department.
- USDA officials as they distribute disaster nutrition assistance to residents in the hurricane-devastated counties.
