About SNAP

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP provides food assistance to low- and no-income people and families. It is a federal program administered by the Food and Nutrition Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture; however, benefits are disbursed at the state level.

In Indiana, the Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA) is responsible for proper distribution in each county.

Benefits are provided on an electronic card that is used like an ATM card and is accepted at most grocery stores. There are also online ordering options for the following stores: Walmart, Amazon and Aldi.
