Coping with cuts is not a SNAP

Now what?

The on again/off again SNAP food assistance program has been ping-ponging the 1.4 million hungry recipients in the state back and forth for weeks and with the Supreme’s slapping a hold on the distribution on some of the funds, the question is now what?

The director of the Michigan Council of Food Banks reported last week that he’s seen between a 30-50% boost in those taking food off the shelves and with the holidays creeping up, that number will increase and Dr. Phil Knight advises everyone he does not have enough food in his emergency system to fully replace all the SNAP grub families need.
