SNAP E&T Program

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is a federal program that provides food benefits to low-income individuals and families to supplement their grocery budget so they can afford the nutritious food essential to health and well-being. If you are not currently on SNAP, we encourage you to apply with the State of Nevada - Division of Welfare and Supportive Services Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program  (DWSS SNAP.) There is a misconception that you are not eligible for SNAP benefits as a student, but there are ways to qualify while still attending school.

SNAP participants are also eligible to participate in the SNAP Employment and Training (SNAP E&T) Program. The SNAP E&T program helps SNAP participants gain skills and find work that moves them forward to self-sufficiency. Through SNAP E&T, SNAP participants have access to training and support services to help them enter or move up in the workforce. 

You must qualify for SNAP before participating SNAP E&T. The SNAP E&T Program fulfills the SNAP work requirement so you can focus on your education.

If you would like to apply for SNAP E&T or for additional information, please email: SNAP@CSN.edu

Please allow up to 5 business days for a reply.
