Colorado Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Colorado Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Fruita, CO, is dedicated to helping low-income households secure the nutrition they need for a healthy life. We offer monthly benefits that empower families to purchase essential food items, ensuring that no Coloradan goes without access to adequate nutrition. Our benefits are conveniently distributed via an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, functioning like a debit card for food purchases, while ensuring that funds are allocated strictly for items meant for human consumption. Whether you're employed or not, you may still qualify based on income, and we provide an easy online pre-screening tool to determine eligibility. Applying for SNAP is straightforward: you can do so online through the Colorado PEAK website, use the MyCOBenefits app on your smartphone, submit a paper application by mail, or contact the Hunger Free Colorado Hotline for assistance. Once approved, your EBT card will be mailed to you, enabling you to shop for nutritious food options. We are here to support our community in overcoming food insecurity through practical assistance and resources.
