Government Shutdown Raises Concerns Over Food Assistance in Utah
As the government shutdown extends to almost two weeks, state agencies in Utah are not expecting immediate impacts on federally funded nutrition programs this month.
However, food access advocates are worried that an overhaul of food programs scheduled to start in November may result in scarcer resources for those in need.
- The state had already secured October's funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
- The Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) is also funded for the month.
- The state is still processing applications for both programs.
No immediate impacts expected this month, but November's overhaul may bring scarcity.
