A food stamp office is a government agency that provides food assistance to low-income individuals and families. The Corpus Christi Food Stamp Office is located in Corpus Christi, Texas, and serves the surrounding area. It is one of many such offices located throughout the United States and is part of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as the Food Stamp Program.
SNAP is a federally funded program that provides monthly benefits to eligible low-income individuals and families to help them purchase food. Benefits are distributed through electronic benefit transfer (EBT) cards that can be used to purchase food at authorized retail stores. SNAP is the largest nutrition assistance program in the United States, and it plays a vital role in reducing food insecurity and hunger among low-income households.
