Economic Aid Provided By The United States
In a published article by Diario AS, the United States provides economic aid through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which is administered by the Department of Agriculture.
This program helps low-income families afford food by issuing monthly payments on an EBT debit card. Each state has different distribution amounts and requirements, but the USDA has a table outlining the maximum payments based on household size.
After a 3.2% cost-of-living adjustment, the maximum SNAP benefits for 2024 range from $291 for a single member to $1751 for eight members.
