SNAP Rules are Changing Effective December 1, 2025 


Although the November disruption to SNAP is due to the government shut-down, new SNAP eligibility and work requirements go into effect on December 1, 2025. For more information about the new requirements and flyers in multiple languages see: snapfederalimpact.illinois.gov.


The Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) developed a

SNAP Partner Toolkit  to share messaging with partners. Note that IDHS will continue to process SNAP applications and redeterminations and people

should receive any benefits they missed when SNAP funding resumes. 




SNAP customers should visit snapfederalimpact.illinois.gov for

the most up-to-date information.

Visit https://www.chicagosfoodbank.org/find-food-2/, or call (773) 247-3663 to find a

food pantry or food distribution site near you.


If you have the capacity and are looking for ways to support your neighbors, consider volunteering at the Greater Chicago Food Depository or one of their food access partners. 

The Mayor’s Office updated their website to include the most up-to-date information and to find food locally.
