Did you lose food as a result of January's storm?

EBT replacement benefits for food destroyed in recent power outages

Current recipients of Basic Food (food stamps) could be eligible for replacement benefits if food was destroyed by recent power outages. Clients must make their report within 10 days of the initial loss of food.

To report a loss and request benefit replacement, clients can:

Visit their local DSHS office OR
Call 1-877-501-2233

DSHS will replace the value of the amount of food lost in the disaster, up to the total amount of the customer’s monthly allotment of Basic Food.
