This program gives you a special debit card with money on it to help you buy food. The program adds money to your card every month. The amount of money you get may depend on three things:
- Money you get from your job or a program like Social Security
- How many people live with you
- Where you live
You can use the card at most grocery stores, certain senior centers, and some meal delivery services such as Meals on Wheels.
How do I apply?
To apply, you can print and fill out the application form and mail it to your local office. You can also apply online. Call your State Hotline at 517-241-3740 to see if you can apply by phone.
If you get Supplemental Security Income benefits, the state has created the Michigan Combined Application Project (MiCAP) to make it easier for you to apply for the Food Assistance Program. Supplemental Security Income is extra money from the federal government to help you pay for everyday expenses.
