The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) helps low-income households purchase food. Families and individuals can receive a monthly benefit to buy healthy food. They can double their benefits value by shopping at participating vendors that support the Double Up Food Bucks program.
Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer (Summer EBT) helps families purchase healthy food for the months in which students are not in school. Eligible students include those who qualify for free or reduced-price meals, as well as those whose families are receiving other assistance benefits, including SNAP.
Food Distribution Programs (FDP) work directly with households in need of food assistance. FDP includes the Commodity Supplemental Food Program, The Emergency Food Assistance Program, the National School Lunch Program, and the Child and Adult Care Food Program.
