Disasters in FNS Western Region, FY18-FY19

Primary Types of FNS Disaster Assistance USDA Foods Congregate feeding Household distribution in specific circumstances Disaster SNAP (D-SNAP)

USDA Foods FNS coordinates with State, local, and voluntary organizations to: Provide food for shelters and other mass feeding sites USDA Foods for congregate feeding typically come from school program warehouses Distribute food packages directly to households in specific situations Requires prior FNS approval to operate Provides foods to disaster survivors for home preparation

Disaster SNAP (D-SNAP) FNS evaluates State requests to operate a Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (D-SNAP) Approval and operation of D-SNAP requires a Presidential disaster declaration that includes assistance to individuals (Stafford Act) Through D-SNAP, State partners are able to offer short-term food assistance to families suffering in the wake of a disaster Disaster survivors may not participate in D-SNAP and Disaster Household Distribution at the same time
