Federal shutdown information:
The Department of Social Services has received notice from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Services that if the federal government shutdown continues into November, there will not be enough funds to pay November Supplemental Nutrition Assistance (SNAP) benefits. If you need to check your EBT balance call 1-888-328-2666 or use MyDSS.ct.gov. For more information about SNAP and the shutdown we have put together a Frequently Asked Question page.
