What the agency says

The Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) is proposing changes to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) regulations in accordance with the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008, which calls for a cost adjustment in the Thrifty Food Plan (TFP) for Hawaii to reflect the cost of food in Hawaii. The proposal would update the method for calculating this cost adjustment to incorporate food prices from throughout the State of Hawaii rather than from Honolulu alone, ensuring that SNAP benefit allotments better reflect food prices faced by participants throughout the State of Hawaii.
