The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, formerly known as the Food Stamp Program, provides monthly benefits that help low-income households buy the food they need for good health.
The Summer Food Service Program grant is a federal grant that is passed through the Texas Department of Human Services.
At national level, SNAP is the largest programme of the national safety net against hunger.
SNAP is intended as a supplement to one's own income to help ensure that nutritional needs are met.
Mississippi residents facing food insecurity are urged to apply for the program.
