Prior to COVID-19, 1 in 10 Montanans, including 36,000+ children, struggled to afford all the food they need. Food insecurity in Montana is estimated to rise by 30% in 2020, putting another 32,000 Montanans at risk of hunger.

The impacts of Double SNAP:

Farmers

Nearly 50% of farms in Montana are small and less than 180 acres. Double SNAP Dollars helps these farms reach more customers. Double SNAP Dollars operates at 26 sites across 13 Montana counties, directly benefiting Montana farmers.

Families

6,000 Montanans have benefited from the program since 2015. In a survey of 140 Double SNAP participants, 96% reported consuming a greater amount of fresh fruits and vegetables as a result of the program. Improved access to nutrition means: 1) children are better learners, 2) seniors and people with disabilities have better health outcomes, and 3) reduced healthcare spending in Montana.

The Economy

SNAP is an effective economic stimulus, with each dollar generating between $1.50 and $1.80 in economic activity. Since 2015, $500,000 has been spent on local foods through Double SNAP Dollars, representing an economic impact of up to $895,000.
