The Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (D-SNAP) provides food assistance for individuals and families impacted by Hurricane Ian and who are not receiving food assistance benefits through the regular Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). In partnership with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, D-SNAP is implemented by the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF).
D-SNAP is being implemented in phases and by county. Pre-registration is required by all applicants. Applicants can then opt for a phone interview through the D-SNAP Call Center or visit a D-SNAP event for an on-site interview. Phone interviews are highly encouraged to help expedite service to eligible households. DCF will host in-person D-SNAP events for residents who cannot participate by phone. On-site interviews are not required if a phone interview is completed.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Each phase includes specific counties. Pre-registration is open for 7 days (Monday at 1:00 A.M. – Sunday at 11:00 P.M.) for the counties listed within each phase.
Residents of those counties must pre-register within the 7-day period.
To qualify, recipients must live and/or work in Orange County, have been impacted by Hurricane Ian and they cannot be currently receiving food stamps.
