    SNAP Data

    This dashboard identifies households, by zip code, who have seen a reduction of SNAP benefits and corresponding food bank zones. The dashboard is meant to assist in identifying and supporting Pennsylvanians who are experiencing a reduction of SNAP benefits and as a result may be having challenges with food insecurity.

    Beyond local charitable food programs like community food pantries, there are two food assistance programs specifically in place to help seniors access fresh, nutritious foods. The Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program provides eligible seniors with vouchers redeemable at more than 800 farm stands and more than 200 farmers' markets in Pennsylvania. The Senior Food Box Program can also provide eligible seniors with additional shelf-stable groceries. Learn more about these programs from the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture.
