Nevadans are facing heightened uncertainty about SNAP benefits amid the ongoing federal government shutdown.
Throughout the state, local organizations are stepping in to offer critical food assistance.
Nevada 211 connects residents with emergency food programs statewide, while the Food Bank of Northern Nevada provides resources for families, seniors, and children through pantries and produce deliveries.
Three Square Food Bank in Southern Nevada is expanding drive-through services, including emergency food distributions and walk-in pantries.
Nonprofits like The Just One Project and Catholic Charities in both North and South Nevada serve produce, meat, and staple foods free of charge.
Other local efforts—such as the Salvation Army, Reno-Sparks Gospel Mission, and dedicated pantries at Nevada colleges—ensure students and families don’t go hungry.
Anyone struggling can reach out for help, with support available in every county and community across Nevada.
