SNAP eligibility; probation compliance
SB 1669 modifies Arizona's SNAP eligibility rules for individuals convicted after 1996 of felony drug offenses. It allows eligibility if they complete substance abuse treatment, are enrolled in a treatment program (even while waiting), actively participate in treatment, have a medical exemption, or comply with probation drug testing requirements. The bill also requires more frequent drug testing for applicants whose offenses occurred within 24 months of applying. This directly affects low-income Arizonans with past drug-related felony convictions seeking food assistance.
