The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP, formerly food stamps, and the Child Support program improve the health and well-being of millions of low-income families every year.
They do this by providing vital nutrition through food stamps and child support by ensuring that children receive financial support from both parents, if possible. The overlap between the two programs is critical.
The food stamps and child support
The Child Support program serves the majority of qualified low-income families. However, some children with a parent living outside the household do not receive child support from their non-residential parents. Usually, parents are poor, not because they are not willing to provide support to their children.
