Benefits are received monthly on an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card and can be used at grocery stores, farmers markets, and authorized supermarkets.

SNAP’s goal is to reduce hunger and food insecurity in the United States. The program provides assistance to millions of families struggling to meet their basic food needs.

What are the requirements to apply for SNAP?

Requirements to apply for SNAP vary by state, but in general, applicants must meet the following criteria:

• Be a US citizen or legal resident
• Have low income
• Meet certain work requirements or participate in training activities

This summer, some households with school-aged children will receive an additional SNAP payment called SUN Bucks or Summer EBT. The amount of this benefit is $120.
