SNAP Support:
A Critical Tool
Did you know 78% of eligible people in Georgia participate in SNAP? Despite this, a significant challenge remains: 57.1% of food-insecure individuals earn too much to qualify for SNAP.
That’s why our team is here—to help families navigate the application process and find support when options seem limited.
