State food assistance lost during Hermine can be replaced

If you receive state food assistance and lost some of your food during Hurricane Hermine you might be eligible to receive replacement of benefits.

Families and individuals who are current food assistance clients may receive replacement of benefits for the value of the food lost because of damage to their home or sustained electrical outages.

To report food loss or to request replacement benefits, customers can obtain the Food Assistance Replacement Authorization Form online at the Florida Department of Children and Families website.

Once you have filled out the form it can either be mailed or faxed back.

The information to do that can be found on this story at oysterradio.com or on the Oyster Radio facebook page.

Customers can submit the form via fax at 1-866-886-4342 or by mailing it to: ACCESS Central Mail Center, P.O. Box 1770, Ocala, FL 34478-1770. Or local fax 850-821-8476
