Big changes are coming to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and some take effect as soon as November 1. In this episode of Health in the 34th, we break down what Kansans need to know with special guest Haley Kottler, Thriving Campaign Director for Kansas Appleseed.

In this episode we cover:

• How SNAP works and who is enrolled in the program
• What changes Kansans can expect in the coming months
• The connection between SNAP and rural grocery stores
• Kansas's long history with SNAP, and
• What new work requirements could mean for Kansas families.

Haley also shares practical ways Kansans can take action and support their neighbors as these changes take hold.
