Colorado Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Colorado Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is dedicated to helping low-income households in La Junta, CO, secure the nutrition they need to thrive. By providing monthly food benefits through an easy-to-use Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, SNAP enables families and individuals, even those with jobs, to access healthy food options. Our mission is to ensure that no one in Colorado goes hungry, and we encourage residents to apply for food assistance if they need support. Pre-screening tools and various application methods, including online options via the Colorado PEAK website and the MyCOBenefits app, make it convenient to determine eligibility and start receiving benefits. SNAP is committed to empowering our community with the resources to maintain sufficient nutrition and improve quality of life.
