[quote=Anonymous]She lives in Virginia, which has chosen the state option available in SNAP to not count assets as part of the eligibility process. Once qualifies for SNAP her kids will be categorically eligible for free meals at school. She will also be categorically eligible for free summer meals - the money will be added to her EBT card. She will also likely be eligible for LIHEAP which is energy assistance, however that program has limited funding so she may not actually get the help depending on how the State is managing the funds. Apply for SNAP with Fairfax County and the rest will cascade from there. And use the programs, that is what they are for. It is much easier for your family to recover financially if you do not have to hit absolute bottom. When you are back on your feet, you will pay taxes back into the system to help the next family.[/quote]
