Did you know that you could qualify for free money for groceries? The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, is a program that supports individuals and families by providing funds to purchase groceries. College students are potentially eligible for these benefits too! These funds can be used when buying food at grocery stores or farmers' markets.

In an effort to support the campus community, the Jane B. Gearhart Full Circle Food Pantry is collaborating with the Northwest Arkansas Food Bank to provide an informational training for university staff interested in receiving information on the basics of SNAP and how to refer students for SNAP application assistance.

The training will be held at 11 a.m. CST Wednesday, March 19, via Teams and will be conducted by Lindsey Russell, SNAP and senior program manager at the NWA Food Bank. Register on Hogsync below!

SNAP Informational Training – March 19, 11 a.m.
