NeedFood.Oregon.gov is a central, statewide resource that connects people to food pantries and meal sites, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), other food assistance programs, and local food resources in their communities.
To support outreach and referrals, the Oregon Department of Human Services (ODHS) has made new flyers and wallet cards available in multiple languages. Select “Materials to print and share” on the NeedFood.Oregon.gov website.
Recent federal changes mean more people in Oregon who receive SNAP food benefits must now show they are working, looking for work or participating in training to continue receiving aid. WorkSource Oregon centers offer free employment and training services to help people meet the requirement and stay eligible.
The Oregon Department of Human Services and the Oregon Employment Department, both WorkSource Oregon partners, are encouraging people who receive SNAP food benefits to take advantage of free job search and training at one of the 37 centers across the state.
