When SNAP Benefits Feel Uncertain
Due to the ongoing federal shutdown, FoodShare (Wisconsin’s SNAP program) benefits are delayed. Members will receive partial November benefits, but timing is uncertain. Existing QUEST card funds can still be used.
If you or someone you know is affected, you are not alone. Help is available in the Fox Cities.
