SNAP Pause FAQ for Farmers Markets (MIFMA Resource)

Hi all - Sharing this timely resource from our partners at MIFMA. Please share with others in your networks!
On Thursday, October 23rd, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) issued a press release stating that they received directions from the USDA FNS to hold November SNAP issuance and ongoing benefits until further notice.

MIMFA has created a FAQ document for market managers and food assistance program retailers that we will continuously update as new information becomes available.

Instead of linking directly to the FAQ document, we recommend linking people to the landing page, where we will post updated information as it becomes available. You can find that here.

Please let MIFMA know if you have any questions or if you have anything you'd like MIFMA to share on our networks.
