    April 20, 2020 VIA EMAIL Teresa Miller, Secretary Russell Redding, Secretary Pennsylvania Department of Human Services Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture 625 Forster Street 2301 North Cameron Street Harrisburg, PA 17120 Harrisburg, PA 17110 Re: Safe Food Purchasing Options for SNAP Recipients Dear Secretary Miller and Secretary Redding, We are writing out of concern for the health and safety of our community and the economic well- being of our local food growers and producers. In order for people to adhere to Center for Disease Control (CDC) social distancing recommendations, to reduce the number of people grocery store workers come into direct contact with, and to enable farmers to facilitate more direct-to-customer sales, we ask that you support retailers in developing ways to accept EBT payments in more environments, such as curbside pickup and payment on delivery, and online sales. Delivery options need to be available to SNAP households. We know that more than one-third of SNAP households include a family member who is an older adult or someone with a disability. Prior to this pandemic, many of these families relied on ride sharing or public transportation options to go grocery shopping. They now find themselves struggling to find someone to go grocery shopping for them. Delivery and pickup options that include online EBT payment will allow communities to better serve vulnerable SNAP households. The guidance that USDA has provided about offering payment at pickup options is helpful, but it still means that someone has to present the EBT card at the store. This leaves our vulnerable neighbors to find someone they trust with their EBT card and PIN who is willing to go to the store on their behalf.
