Food Services During Storm Recovery

Many non-profit and government agencies in Louisville are working to meet the needs of citizens who do not have access to food during the power outage and storm recovery efforts. If you cannot afford to purchase food for your family, the following options are available:

Food Stamps
Current month food stamp recipients can request replacement stamps due to food lost during the power outage, according to officials with the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services. Clients have until Tuesday, Sept. 23 to request replacement stamps.
Clients can go to the L&N Building at 908 West Broadway or to any Neighborhood Place office from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Clients must sign a statement that they lost food during a power outage and are requesting replacement funds, state officials said.
Elderly and handicapped clients may contact their food stamp workers by phone to have an affidavit sent to them to sign and return.
The requests will be processed as they are received. Once approved, replacement benefits will be added to the client’s EBT card.
