The Food Stamp Program is a federal government nutrition program, like WIC and School Meals. People may be eligible to receive food stamp benefits whether or not they are working or have children. Benefits are now distributed using the Food Stamp Advantage Card (shown below), that works just like a bank card or a debit card.
