The Colorado Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is committed to supporting low-income households in Breckenridge and throughout Colorado by providing crucial monthly benefits that empower families to purchase healthy and nutritious food. Through this program, eligible individuals and families receive an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card to buy food items intended for human consumption, ensuring that everyone has access to the nourishment they need. SNAP benefits can help those experiencing financial challenges, including employed individuals, as long as they meet specified income criteria. To determine eligibility for food assistance, a convenient pre-screening tool is available online. Applications can be submitted through the Colorado PEAK website, the MyCOBenefits app, or via paper application, with the approval process generally taking between 7 to 30 days. While SNAP benefits currently cannot be used for online purchases at most retailers, some locations allow for EBT card use for in-store pick-up orders, and authorized representatives can be appointed to assist with purchases. We're here to ensure that no Coloradan goes hungry.
