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 ensuring that low-income residents of Edgewater, MD have access to the essential food they need for health and well-being. This vital program offers monthly benefits that assist households in purchasing nutritious food, allowing families to thrive. Benefits are issued each month via an Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card, providing a convenient and effective way to shop for healthy food options. Through SNAP, we aim to alleviate food insecurity and empower our community members to achieve better nutritional health.
