Are you struggling to provide for your family?  SNAP can help! The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program helps put food on the table for some 31 million people per month. It provides low-income households with monthly electronic benefits they can use like cash at most grocery stores. This is the same program formerly known as food stamps.

Second Harvest North Florida is committed to helping solve the issue of hunger in the communities we serve throughout north Florida. Part of that commitment is helping individuals and families find the food resources they need, both short- and long-term. If you are in need of food assistance, please click the buttons below for information about help that is available to you:
