Texas Health Resources Marks 4-Year Milestone in Double Up Efforts:

Families dependent on Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits may be feeling the pinch since emergency allotments put in place during the pandemic ended on March 1. The end to emergency funding means a loss of $95 to more than $400 a month in SNAP grocery benefits offered during the pandemic. The move is expected to impact about 1.6 million Texas households, as Texas sees about a 35% drop in federal funding for SNAP benefits. Fortunately, Double Up Food Bucks can provide some relief to Tarrant County residents, making it easier to put fresh fruits and vegetables on the table.
