Friends and Family,

Across Oregon, many individuals and families are feeling the effects of recent changes and delays in SNAP (food assistance) benefits. These moments remind us how important connection, awareness, and compassion truly are.

At AIM Supports, we’re focused on staying close to the people we serve — listening, noticing, and helping them find the resources they need in their communities. Our DSPs and Support Coordinators are working hand in hand, making sure clients feel supported, valued, and never alone in navigating challenges like these.

It’s the small, steady acts of care — a check-in, a conversation, a helping hand — that make the biggest difference. We’re proud of our team and grateful for the heart they bring to this work every single day. 💛

If you or someone you know needs help connecting with local resources — including food assistance, housing, utility support, health care, and family services, call 2-1-1 or visit oregonfoodbank.org to locate food assistance support in your area.

A huge thank you to Vicky Big Guy for inviting AIM to participate in her Nightmare on Nehalem Street Trunk or Treat event! Our team had an amazing time. So many adorable faces! Here is a few of our favorite photos of the day!

The federal government shutdown is affecting funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). If the shutdown continues into November, SNAP benefits for November will not be issued until federal funding starts again.

You can still use any SNAP benefits already on your EBT card. SNAP funds do not expire right away. Your current balance will stay available during this time.

When federal operations resume, ODHS will issue November benefits as quickly as possible. The timing will depend on national systems that process benefits for many states, which may cause some delays.

We know this is stressful for many people who rely on SNAP. We are watching the situation closely and will share updates as soon as we have them.
