Putting healthy food on the table every day can be challenging — and sometimes we all need a little extra support. That’s where SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) comes in.

In Texas, SNAP provides monthly funds on a Lone Star Card that you can use to buy groceries at most stores, some farmers markets, and even certain online retailers. It’s designed to help families keep nutritious food in the home all month long.
