Minnesota's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) provides financial assistance to low-income individuals and families to help them purchase food. The program aims to improve nutrition and alleviate hunger by offering monthly benefits that can be used at authorized grocery stores and farmers' markets. Eligibility for SNAP is based on income, household size, and other factors. Participants must meet specific criteria to receive benefits, which are loaded onto an electronic benefits transfer (EBT) card for easy access. The program is an essential resource for many residents in Minnesota seeking to maintain a healthy diet.
