Food Stamps are now called Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
SNAP/Food Stamps are a benefit that you can use to buy food at supermarkets, grocery stores, and some restaurants and senior meal programs. SNAP/Food Stamps are for single people and for families. You can apply for them at your local Department of Transitional Assistance (DTA) office.
