Thank you to the Kent County Food Policy Council for sharing valuable information regarding the pause in SNAP benefits.

WHAT THIS GAP MEANS FOR SNAP RECIPIENTS:
If you currently have funds on your EBT card, you can continue using them; however, unused benefits over 9 months old will be eliminated from the available balance
MDDHS will continue processing applications, renewals, and case changes.
Check MI Bridges for updates that will be posted there as things change.
