ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Leaders of Monroe County, the City of Rochester, and local nonprofits are set to speak on Monday about the new work requirements for some people receiving food assistance.
Starting on March 1, able-bodied adults without dependents will need to work to receive SNAP benefits because of changes in federal policy.
