HB 2387 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Establishes a "Restaurant Meals Program" as part of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

This bill creates a "Restaurant Meals Program" within the state's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, allowing specific groups to use their benefits at participating restaurants instead of just for grocery purchases. It directly affects households with elderly or disabled members, their spouses, and homeless individuals by giving them the option to redeem their benefits at private establishments that contract with the department to offer meals at reduced prices. The program operates under federal guidelines that require these restaurants to provide food at concessional prices to eligible participants.
