Use SNAP to Purchase Groceries

SNAP is short for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program

It’s a federal program that helps eligible households save money and stretch their budget with monthly paid benefits to purchase groceries.

Your benefits can be used at a wide range of participating locations across Louisiana like grocery stores, pharmacies, convenience stores, gas stations, and some farmer’s markets.
