The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in Lebanon, ME, is dedicated to providing vital food assistance to low-income households, empowering them to access the nutritious food they need for a healthy life. This entitlement program offers monthly benefits distributed through an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, functioning like a debit card for purchasing food that is meant for human consumption. Applying for SNAP is straightforward; you can visit or contact your local DHHS Office for Family Independence to participate in a simple interactive interview. There’s no need for a lengthy application process—your information will be entered during the interview, and you'll sign the completed application afterward. For a quick eligibility check, our online Prescreening Tool can help determine your potential benefits. We are here to support the community in ensuring food security for all residents.
