Due to a recent rule change, after April 1, 2016 more than 1,500 County residents may not receive monthly Food Supplement Program benefits. The new rule states that individuals between the ages of 18-50, able to work and not living with a dependent child can only receive SNAP benefits for 3 months in a 3 year period.

Manna Food Center is hosting an information session to explain the impacts of these rules. The event will be on Feb 4 from 2-3:30pm at the Casey Health Institute in Gaithersburg. For more information about Manna Food or the event, contact Jenna.
