Illinois Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Illinois Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Decatur, IL, is dedicated to providing food assistance to low-income households, ensuring that families have access to the nutritious food they need. Through monthly benefits accessible via the Illinois Link Card, participants can purchase a wide range of food products intended for human consumption, promoting health and well-being within the community. Eligibility for SNAP benefits is determined by household income and size. We encourage individuals who are able to work to seek employment while also recognizing the urgent need for food security. Due to the COVID-19 crisis, we ask all applicants and recipients to utilize our online and telephone services for assistance, rather than visiting in person. During the months of April and May, all SNAP recipients will receive maximum benefit amounts to help them during these challenging times.
