Colorado Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Colorado Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Greeley, CO, is dedicated to empowering low-income households by providing essential food assistance designed to foster adequate nutrition for all. This program ensures that every eligible Coloradan can access the food they need through monthly benefits, delivered via an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, which functions similarly to a debit card exclusively for food purchases. While the benefits cover most food items, they cannot be used for alcoholic beverages, cigarettes, or non-food products. Eligible individuals and families, even those who are employed, are encouraged to apply for assistance through various convenient methods including online applications at the Colorado PEAK website, the MyCOBenefits mobile app, or by submitting a traditional paper application. After approval, which takes between 7 to 30 days, recipients will receive their EBT card to begin accessing food necessities. For those seeking to determine their qualification for this critical food assistance program, a pre-screening tool is readily available online.
