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 Mechanicsville secure the essential food they need for a healthy life. We provide vital monthly benefits that empower households to purchase nutritious food, ensuring everyone has access to adequate nutrition. Benefits are distributed conveniently through an Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card, which functions like a debit or credit card, making it easy to shop for groceries. Our mission is to support the well-being of our community by removing barriers to food access and promoting better health outcomes.
