Colorado Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Colorado Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Monument, CO, is dedicated to providing essential food assistance to low-income households, ensuring that all residents can access the nutritious food they need. This vital program offers monthly benefits through an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, allowing participants to purchase a wide range of food items intended for human consumption. Importantly, even individuals and families with employment may qualify based on their income level. To determine eligibility and apply for this crucial food pantry support, individuals can use an online pre-screening tool, submit an application via the Colorado PEAK website, or download the MyCOBenefits app for convenience on their mobile devices. While the approval process may take between 7 to 30 days, recipients will receive their EBT card via mail, which may take an additional 7 to 10 days. Although online purchases are currently limited, authorized representatives can assist in purchasing food on behalf of SNAP participants. Together, we are working to eliminate hunger in Colorado and enhance the quality of life for our community members.
