SNAP Recipients Can Request Replacement Benefits

(Portland, OR) -- If you get benefits from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and you lost food due to the winter storm, you could be eligible for replacement benefits. Power outages in the storm caused many Oregonians to lose food, or have to toss food that was no longer safe to eat. The Oregon Department of Human Services says requests must document their losses and ask for replacement benefits within ten days of losing the food. If approved, funds will be added to their EBT cards.
