South Carolina’s SNAP program provides nutrition assistance for low income households. Recipients of SNAP benefits will be issued an Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) card, which they can use to purchase eligible foods. While no specific guidance has been provided for those affected by COVID-19, individuals and families adversely impacted by COVID-19 should be eligible if they meet general eligibility requirements.
