Dining Facilities and Homeless Meal Providers
4 rules
Households with special circumstances, such as a person with disabilities, persons aged sixty (60) and older, or group living arrangements, may be authorized to use SNAP benefits to buy food from authorized communal dining facilities, meals on wheels, drug and alcohol treatment and rehabilitation centers, and shelters for battered women and children. Households experiencing homelessness may also use SNAP benefits to purchase prepared meals from approved restaurants. SNAP households experiencing homelessness may use food benefits for meals prepared for and served by an authorized provider (for example, a soup kitchen or temporary shelter) that feeds persons experiencing homelessness.
