SNAP Food Benefits – Texas Eligibility, Changes, and How to Apply Online
The Texas Food Assistance program, also known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), helps low-income Texans access nutritious groceries and maintain food security.

You can use SNAP benefits for:

SNAP cannot be used for alcohol, tobacco, pet food, toiletries, hot prepared meals, or non-food items.
