Thousands on SNAP could see benefit changes next month — check how your payments may shift

Nevada will start new SNAP rules on March 1, 2026. The changes affect Able-Bodied Adults Without Dependents (ABAWDs). Some people who were exempt, like parents with older children, veterans, and former foster youth, must now meet work requirements. SNAP recipients may need to work, train, or join programs to keep their benefits and avoid losing food assistance.
