SNAP BENEFITS ARE ADJUSTING IN THE MONTH OF OCTOBER

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP is designed to assist low-income families by supplementing their grocery budgets, enabling them to access nutritious food and promote overall well-being. The amount traditionally received through the  Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) program in Texas may be adjusted due to this increase in allotments.

WHAT IS THE INCREASE TEXAS WILL SEE?

Currently, Texas, along with 47 other states and Washington D.C., will receive maximum SNAP benefits, which means that for each additional person added to a household's SNAP benefits, there will be an extra $220 per month. The maximum SNAP benefits will increase by a few dollars per household size:
