USDA, Food Stamp Program
The Food Stamp Program is the cornerstone of the Federal food
assistance programs, and provides crucial support to needy households
and to those making the transition from welfare to work. It serves
as the first line of defense against hunger. Food Stamps enable
low-income families to buy nutritious food with Electronic Benefits
Transfer (EBT) cards. Food stamp recipients spend their benefits
to buy eligible food in authorized retail food stores. |
