Food Stamp Program

Food stamps are a special type of money that the government gives to families and people who need help buying food.

When someone qualifies for food stamps, they get a special card that they can use at the grocery store to buy food. The card works just like a normal credit or debit card, but it can only be used to buy things that are considered food or drinks.

People who have low incomes or who are unemployed can apply for food stamps. The government looks at their income, expenses, and family size to see if they qualify.

Once someone is approved for food stamps, they receive an amount of money each month to spend on groceries. They can use this money to buy things like fruits, vegetables, meat, bread, milk, and other food items.

The goal of the food stamp program is to help make sure that everyone has access to enough food to eat, especially people who might be struggling to afford it on their own.
