Need Help with Your Application? Ask a SNAP Navigator.
Applying for SNAP can be confusing. A SNAP Navigator can help you apply and help you keep your benefits so you can get the food assistance you need.
SNAP Navigators will walk you through:
- How SNAP works;
- eligibility requirements;
- what documents you need to apply;
- the application process, and;
- how to keep your SNAP benefits.
They also can answer questions and correct misconceptions about SNAP to help you decide if SNAP is right for you. This help is free and confidential.
