Late on Wednesday, Nov. 5, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) sent states new instructions about Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) partial payments for November.

The Kansas Department for Children and Families (DCF) is now recalculating each household’s SNAP benefits based on the Nov. 5 guidance, which is different from guidance provided on Nov. 4.

DCF does not yet know the exact benefit amounts or when the updated payments will be sent out. Please continue to monitor the DCF webpage for updates as they are available: https://www.dcf.ks.gov/Agency/Pages/2025-Federal-Government-Shutdown.aspx.

Basic needs (food, shelter, water, clothing) before needs surrounding mental and physical health and education can be addressed. There are too many people who no longer are able to meet those needs due to the government shutdown. If you are able to donate to organizations who are trying to fill that gap, please do so! If you are in need, please reach out to those organizations!
