What exactly are SNAP Benefits?

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is a government-funded program for purchasing food when income is low. Benefits are loaded onto what is called an EBT card, some also refer to it as the “Oregon Trail Card”. The card acts the same as a debit card, but the money can only be spent on food products. You bring this card with you to participating stores, farmers markets and food co-ops, and swipe at the register during each purchase. Click here for a map of participating stores, searchable by zip code. Every person’s card has a different amount of money attached to it based upon their personal income and family situation — up to $234 each month for a single-person household or $782 for a family of four. You will receive details when your application is approved. Each month you are enrolled in the SNAP program, this amount will be added to your card and can be used to purchase food. Any unused funds are available for up to one year from the date they’re added to your card. In addition, many stores and farmers markets participate in the Double Up Food Bucks program for SNAP recipients, which matches up to $20 each day toward locally grown fruits and vegetables.

Is Oregon getting more P-EBT 2022?

If your household received SNAP benefits between September 2021 and May 2022 and a child in your household was age 5 or under, that child is eligible for P-EBT. All children eligible for P-EBT were part of a SNAP household, so P-EBT will be added to the household's existing EBT card.

oregonhunger.org - Pandemic EBT - Partners for a Hunger-Free Oregon

The Pandemic EBT (P-EBT) program has changed recently and eligibility is currently for children in SNAP households ages 5 and under. Pandemic EBT (P-EBT) is part of the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. P-EBT is money for children whose access to adequate and quality food may have been impacted by COVID-19.

There is no application. Children are eligible for P-EBT if they:

Live in a household that received SNAP benefits for at least one month from September 2021 through May 2022. Were age 0-5 for at least one month from September 2021 through May 2022. Oregon is sending P-EBT to families receiving SNAP benefits that have children ages 5 and under to make up for missed meals caused by child care closures.
