Indiana Snap EBT
Welcome to SNAP EBT information page for the state of Indiana.
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as Food Stamps, is a food assistance program that offers monthly cash benefits to Indiana citizens with extremely low incomes so they can purchase a healthier diet.
Participants in Indiana’s SNAP program can get their EBT benefits via a “Hoosier Works” card that functions just like a debit card at locations that accept EBT.
