Illinois Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Illinois Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is dedicated to supporting low-income households in Addison, IL, by providing essential food assistance through monthly benefits. Our program enables individuals and families to purchase the nutritious food they need to thrive, with benefits accessible via the Illinois Link Card, which functions like a debit card specifically for food purchases. We cover a wide range of food items intended for human consumption, ensuring that nutrition is within everyone's reach, although hot meals are excluded. Eligibility is determined by household income and family size, and we encourage those who are able to seek employment. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we prioritize the safety of our clients, urging all applicants to utilize our online and phone services for ease and convenience during this time. Together, we work to combat food insecurity and ensure that every household has access to adequate nutrition.
