Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Covington, LA, is dedicated to supporting eligible low-income households by providing monthly food assistance benefits. Our mission is to help families access nutritious food essential for good health. While SNAP benefits significantly contribute to a household's food budget, many participants find they still need to supplement these funds with their own resources to ensure they have enough food to last all month. We also facilitate assistance through the Louisiana Combined Application Project (LaCAP) for eligible individuals. It’s important to note that due to high demand related to COVID-19, our staff is currently operating at limited capacity, and as a result, clients may experience longer wait times. We encourage clients to stay informed by checking for updates on our services as they navigate the application process with us.
