It offers benefits through an electronic debit card that can be used at authorized grocery stores and markets. SNAP aims to alleviate hunger and improve food security while promoting healthy eating. Eligibility depends on income, household size, and other factors. The program plays a vital role in supporting families during tough economic times and contributes to the overall well-being of the community by helping ensure access to essential nutrition.
