Ede gratis pou aplikasyon SNAP ak Stamps Manje nan Miami-Dade ak Broward
A New Life in Christ Ministries and Resources helps families in Miami-Dade County and Broward County apply for SNAP food assistance at no cost. As a registered MyACCESS Partner with the Florida Department of Children and Families, staff complete and submit the application with you instead of sending you to a website.
What SNAP application help covers
SNAP is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Most people still call it food stamps. Benefits arrive on an EBT card that works like a debit card at grocery stores.
A New Life in Christ Ministries and Resources helps with the whole process:
- Free eligibility screening before you apply, so you do not waste weeks finding out you do not qualify
- Completing and submitting the application through MyACCESS, with you, at your appointment
- Gathering documents and working out how to replace anything you are missing
- Understanding letters from DCF that are hard to read
- Recertification when your six-month period ends, so your benefits do not stop
- Fixing problems with an application that was denied or a case that closed
Waiting on your application? Approval can take up to 30 days. You do not have to go without food in the meantime. See our food pantry in Miami Gardens, or call 211 for a distribution near you.
Who qualifies for SNAP in Florida
Florida screens gross income at 200 percent of the federal poverty level, one of the highest thresholds in the country. Many working families qualify and never apply because they assume they earn too much. Florida also has no asset limit for most applicants, so savings and a car usually do not disqualify you.
You may qualify if you are working, retired, disabled, a student who meets an exemption, or out of work. Households where everyone receives SSI or Temporary Cash Assistance are generally eligible automatically.
The only way to know is to be screened. A New Life in Christ Ministries and Resources does that for free.
Rules changed in 2026. Federal changes that took effect in February 2026 altered eligibility for some immigrant categories, and Florida introduced restrictions on what SNAP can buy in 2026. Staff will explain what applies to your household at your appointment.
