The Alaska Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) serves the Metlakatla, AK community by providing essential food assistance to low-income households. This important program ensures that eligible families receive the support they need to access nutritious food through government-issued benefits on the Alaska Quest card. The amount of assistance a household can receive is based on their countable income and family size, allowing for tailored support that meets each household's unique needs. SNAP benefits can be used to purchase food items from authorized retailers throughout the state, making it easier for families to provide essential nutrition. If you’re interested in applying for assistance, please visit our local office to obtain the Application for Services, which can be submitted by mail, fax, drop-off, or email.
