SNAP
The Illinois Department of Human Services Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (food stamps) is a food assistance program that helps people with low incomes buy food. Benefits can be used to purchase food items at grocery stores and convenience stores. Benefits are put on a LINK card. Your SNAP unit size is anyone you buy and prepare food with. It does not have to include everyone you live with.
The U.S. Department of Education and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) have partnered to extend SNAP Benefits to qualified students.
Eligibility requirements are as follows:
- Students receiving the maximum Pell Grant and have an expected family contribution of $0 in the current academic year may be eligible to participate in SNAP benefits. Please visit for more information.
- Students that are eligible to participate in state or federally financed work-study programs during the regular academic year, as determined by the higher education institution.
Eligible students can apply for benefits online at or contact your local office for more information.
