Food Stamps

The Food Stamp Program is a Federally funded program that helps low-income people buy the food they need for good health. For most households, food stamps are only part of their food budget, they must spend some of their own cash along with their food stamps benefits in order to buy enough food for a month.

Some of those who may qualify, even if they are employed, own a home, or are receiving cash assistance or benefit, are:

  • Families
  • Individuals
  • Legal non-citizens
  • Elderly People
  • People with Disabilities
