A Note From CDJFS Director, Kevin Gowan;
To our community partners,
The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) announced earlier this month that some Ohio Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients will be automatically receiving additional SNAP benefits for the months of March and April 2020, due to the federal Families First Coronavirus Response Act.
Assistance groups that did not receive the maximum allotment for their household size in the month of April 2020 will be issued an additional payment, scheduled for this week. This additional payment will be added to the issuance that was received in April to equal the maximum allotment amount for their household size. Additional SNAP benefits for March 2020 have already been issued to all eligible assistance groups. Please see the attached fact sheet for information about the additional SNAP benefits.
Please advise the community not to call the Eligibility Contact Center about the additional SNAP benefits. They will be automatically added to their Ohio Direction Card.
Additionally, to reduce contact with others when shopping for grocery items, retailers that provide the option of accepting SNAP benefits for online ordering have been identified. Customers will be able to order online and pay with their SNAP benefits for pick up curbside or in some cases inside the store. The customer may be able to pay outside if the retailer has a mobile point-of-sale device.
The following retailers have been identified in Cuyahoga County, both retailers require an online account to be created:
Thank you for your support and assistance.
In the Spirit of Service,
Kevin Gowan
Administrator
Cuyahoga Job and Family Services
In addition to the above notice, we have also received notices regarding the extension of certification periods and periodic reporting (Interim Report) for SNAP and TANF (Cash).
• Certification periods for SNAP and Cash households scheduled to expire in March, April, May and June 2020 are being extended for 6 months until September, October, November, and December 2020.
Temporary funding through the Prevention, Retention, and Contingency (PRC) program will allow Cuyahoga Job and Family Services (CJFS) to provide emergency assistance to eligible families through a PRC voucher. While limited funding is available, COVID-19 PRC vouchers will provide assistance with additional food assistance, select essential supplies, and housing costs.

Please note: While WIC staff are able to complete most of the visit via telephone the parent/caregiver must still come into the WIC office to have the WIC Nutrition Card (WNC) loaded. This card cannot be loaded over the phone, and the card cannot be mailed. At Cleveland Hts WIC, the parent/caregiver must enter through the MetroHealth Emergency Department (ED) entrance. Everyone entering any MH facility is screened and needs to wear their own mask (or MH will provide a mask) that must be worn when in the building. The above protocol is mandatory and put in place to protect the staff and visitors of MetroHealth Hospital. If you are not comfortable entering the building through the ED entrance, you will not be able to receive WIC benefits at this time. Please be mindful of this BEFORE discussing your benefits with the WIC representative.
