The Food Stamp Program gives people with little or no money coupons that they can use to buy food at grocery stores. Almost all people with low incomes are eligible for food stamps. You do not have to live with children, be on welfare, or be elderly or disabled to get food stamps.
Many people work and get food stamps.
You can use your food stamps to buy food at most grocery stores and supermarkets. You can buy almost all foods with food stamps.
