Bridging Food Insecurity
SNAP - Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program
We recognize the fundamental importance of ensuring access to nutritious food for all individuals and families, regardless of economic circumstances. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as food stamps, serves as a cornerstone of support in addressing food insecurity and promoting healthy eating habits among low-income households.
