Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), recognized as the Food Supplement Program (FSP) in Maryland, is dedicated to supporting low-income individuals and families in Aberdeen, MD, by providing essential food assistance. Through this vital program, qualified households receive monthly benefits that empower them to purchase nutritious food necessary for their health and well-being. Benefits are distributed via an easy-to-use Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card, functioning like a debit or credit card, ensuring that those in need can access the food they require for a balanced diet. By addressing food insecurity, SNAP/FSP plays a critical role in strengthening the community's nutritional foundations.
