The Maine Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Bucksport is dedicated to helping low-income households access essential food assistance to ensure they can maintain proper nutrition. This valuable program offers monthly financial benefits delivered through an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, allowing participants to purchase nutritious food effortlessly. Applying for SNAP is straightforward; you can simply visit or call your local DHHS Office for Family Independence for an interactive interview to determine your eligibility. There’s no need for lengthy application forms, as the information provided during the interview is digitally processed and a signed application will be provided for your records. For additional convenience, the prescreening tool available online can help you assess your eligibility while guiding you through the application process. In Maine, we are committed to serving our community by ensuring everyone has access to the food they need.
