Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

Read a random definition: cyclical

A quick definition of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP):

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is a government program that helps people who don't have enough money to buy food. It used to be called the food stamp program. SNAP gives money to low-income families and individuals so they can buy food at grocery stores and markets. To qualify, you have to make less than a certain amount of money each month. The amount of money you get depends on how many people are in your family and if anyone is elderly or disabled. SNAP is an important program that helps reduce hunger in the United States.

A more thorough explanation:

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is a government program that helps low-income individuals and families buy food. It is the largest food assistance program in the United States and replaced the food stamp program. SNAP is an important safety net that helps reduce hunger in the country.

To qualify for SNAP, applicants must have a monthly income that is at or below 130% of the poverty line and meet other income requirements. The amount of aid given is based on family size, elderly or disabled family members, and expected contribution. SNAP benefits are provided through an "EBT" card that can be used to purchase approved food items at participating grocery stores and markets.

For example, a family of four with a monthly income of $2,790 or less would qualify for SNAP benefits. They would receive an average of $132 a month to buy food.

SNAP is an important program that helps millions of Americans access the food they need to live healthy lives. It is a vital safety net for those who are struggling to make ends meet.
