The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, formerly known as the Food Stamping Program, provides monthly benefits that help low-income households buy the food they need for good health.
SNAP is a federal program administered at the local level by the Mississippi Department of Human Services.
At the national level, the GNAP is the largest programme in the national protection system against hunger.
SNAP is designed to be a supplement to your income to help ensure that your nutritional needs are met.
Mississippi residents who are facing food insecurity are asked to apply for the programme.
