Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Charlestown, IN, is dedicated to providing essential food assistance benefits to low-income households, ensuring access to nourishing food that supports well-being. Through this vital federal nutrition program, eligible individuals and families can utilize the Hoosier Works EBT card, which functions like a debit card to purchase a variety of food items intended for human consumption, with the exception of hot meals and non-food products. Our goal is to alleviate food insecurity by making it easier for those in need to afford the food staples necessary for daily living. Eligibility for benefits is determined by household income and family size, with quick support available for those facing urgent needs. Interested households can easily apply online to access these important resources and receive timely assistance to help stabilize their nutrition and financial situation in the community.
