Food and Support Resources Available During the Federal Government Shutdown

The Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is committed to supporting our residents during the federal government shutdown. We understand that this situation creates uncertainty, especially for federal employees, contractors, and residents who rely on programs such as SNAP and WIC. 

We are closely monitoring the impacts on food assistance programs and will provide updates as they become available.
