Illinois Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Illinois Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Tinley Park is dedicated to providing essential food assistance to low-income households, ensuring that families can access the nourishment they need for a healthy life. This vital program offers monthly benefits loaded onto the Illinois Link Card, which functions like a debit card specifically for purchasing food items. Eligible participants can use these benefits for a wide range of groceries, excluding hot meals, with the amount determined by household income and family size. As part of our commitment to supporting our community, we encourage all eligible individuals to apply for these critical food resources, particularly during challenging times like the COVID-19 crisis, when online services are available to streamline the application process while ensuring safety. With SNAP, we're here to help you maintain adequate nutrition and improve your family's food security.
