The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) temporarily suspended SNAP work requirements during the federal emergency declaration. This means that starting April 1, 2020 there are NO ABAWD work requirements in Illinois.

SNAP stands for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. SNAP is a federal program that helps millions of low-income Americans put food on the table. Across the United States there are 9.5 million families with children on SNAP. It is the largest program working to fight hunger in America.
