Use the Find Food IL map to find places in your community offering free food or meals. You can also find stores and markets that accept SNAP/LINK or WIC coupons. Plus, see the DHS or WIC office nearest to you.

SNAP, formerly called Food Stamps, is a federal program that supplements the food budgets of households with low income so they can be more independent, work towards self-sufficiency, and prepare nutritious meals.

While applying on-line is recommended; if preferred, SNAP and healthcare applications can be completed over the phone by calling the ABE Customer Call Center at: 800-843-6154.

There are a variety of additional assistance programs to help Illinois individuals and families. Learn more about the different resources available.
