<div>Good evening BFET Team</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please see the email below and DSHS official notification (attached) of March SNAP benefits release schedule change. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The scheduled release of benefits change is in effort to mitigate the early release of SNAP benefits in January due to the partial government shutdown.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This may effect those you serve in your BFET programs and better help you answer questions they may have in regards to their benefits.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you have any questions please feel free to reach out.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Respectfully </div>
<div><br>
</div>
