Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), also referred to as the Food Supplement Program (FSP) in Maryland, is dedicated to helping low-income individuals and families in Bethesda access the nutritious food they need for a healthy lifestyle. By providing monthly benefits, SNAP empowers households to purchase food essentials needed to maintain proper nutrition. Benefits are conveniently issued through an Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card, allowing seamless and discreet transactions, similar to using a debit or credit card. We are committed to ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to secure adequate food assistance and improve their overall well-being.
