As the federal government shutdown persists and SNAP benefits are due to run out tomorrow, we know that seniors and families around the state and community partners are anxious and scrambling to ensure that Missouri seniors do not go hungry and isolated. Please check out and share the resources below with those who are impacted by the shutdown.
- Missouri Department of Social Services (DSS) Find resources
