Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)/Food Assistance

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Basalt, CO, provides essential food assistance to low-income households, helping them access healthy food options with the support they need to thrive. By offering monthly benefits that can be used at a variety of participating grocery and convenience stores throughout Eagle County, SNAP ensures that families can put nutritious meals on their tables. The amount of assistance received is determined by household size and income, and benefits are conveniently delivered via an Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card, functioning like a debit card. If you’re in need of emergency food assistance, we encourage you to apply through the Colorado PEAK online portal or reach out to your local Eagle County office for a paper application. Together, we can make a difference in combating food insecurity and promoting healthier choices in our community.
