NAP to issue benefits through drive-thru service
In conformance with the governor’s Public Health Emergency declaration and to ensure that protocols for social distancing are in place, the Nutrition Assistance Program will be distributing April 2020 benefits through drive-thru service at its office in As Lito.
This means eligible households will be issued their benefits to them while in their vehicle. The purpose of this drive-thru service is to ensure safety and protection of the public and Nutrition Assistance Program personnel from Covid-19.
There will be no walk-in service. Issuance of benefits will be performed through the drive-thru service only. Walk-in service will be available on April 16, 2020. Additionally, only those whose names appear on the valid NAP Identification Card may receive their household’s benefits. In addition to the NAP Identification Card, the individual must have a valid photo identification card such as a valid driver’s license or passport.
The Nutrition Assistance Program has developed a schematic of how the benefit distribution will take place.
