UPDATE- Please Read!
Urgent From Colorado Department of Human Services: SNAP Benefits for November 2025 are on Hold
The federal government shutdown means the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will not send states the money for November SNAP benefits. We cannot put the money on your EBT card until this changes. This is a change impacting all SNAP households and cannot be appealed.
If you need more food resources during the government shutdown, we encourage you to reach out to your local food banks or community agencies in your area.
To find these resources in your area, please contact:
Colorado 211: Dial 2-1-1 or (866)760-6489 or visit www.211colorado.org
Feeding Colorado Resources at www.feedingcolorado.org/find-food or info@feedingcolorado.org
When the shutdown ends, we’ll know more about the future of SNAP benefits.

Parents, this is notification we received from CDE. We felt it was important information for you to have.
Due to the federal government shutdown, SNAP benefits for November may be delayed. School meals are still available. If you need additional food before your SNAP benefits are available, there are local resources that can help:
Colorado 211: Call 2-1-1- or 866-760-6489 or visit www.211colorado.org
Feeding Colorado: Visit www.feedingcolorado.org/find-food or email info@feedingcolorado.org
Hunger Free Colorado Food Resource Hotline: 855-855-4626
The School Breakfast Program (SBP) and National School Lunch Program (NSLP) both provide essential access to food for our students. We want to remind everyone that federal statute requires that the government reimburse for federal meal programs, even during a shutdown. At CDE, we do have funding available for reimbursements for the federal school meals program through the end of October. We anticipate that future reimbursements for SBP and NSLP may be somewhat delayed, depending on when the federal shutdown ends. If you have urgent needs, please contact Executive Director of School Nutrition Brehan Riley at riley_b@cde.state.co.us or 720-202-3338.
