About Food and Cash Assistance
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is a Food Assistance program in Colorado, formerly known as Food Stamps. SNAP provides food assistance benefits as part of a federal nutrition program to help low-income households purchase food. Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards are issued to receive the SNAP benefits for a household.

Colorado Works, also known as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), provides a cash benefit to low-income families which include children (or a pregnancy). The program offers a wide array of supports including ongoing cash assistance, help with emergency expenses, education, job preparation and employment services.

Adult Financial Programs provide cash assistance to low-income Colorado residents under various programs. Old Age Pension (OAP) provides a cash benefit to low-income adults ages 60 years or older. Aid to the Needy Disabled – Colorado Supplement (AND-CS) provides cash assistance to those 0-59 years of age who are receiving SSI due to a disability or blindness but are not receiving the full SSI grant amount. Aid to the Needy Disabled – State Only (AND-SO) provides interim assistance for those aged 18-59 years with a disability that prevents them from working and who have not been approved for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI).

Ratings and reviews

Was working fine until the most recent update (10/9/24). Since then I can't get to any of my info. The pin login doesn't work (which doesn't bother me since I prefer the username/PW login), but once I login app flashes what a usually see for literally 1 second, then goes blank white screen. I have the latest version, and Android 13 OS so it's supposed to be compatible. When it worked, it was great. But hasn't worked in almost a month.

I can download the documents and submit them. then I don't know what happens if the caseworker doesn't get them or something. had to fight to get my benefits back because they didn't receive them and still take in all the documents they wanted. so the App/online isn't helpful as far as updating, and responding to requests/renewal and turning in documents.

Its ok. I like having access to balance and correspondance. I am unable to report changes on the app though. Update* now I can report changes, but my account information has reverted back to 2014 and I am unable to find or access any correspondence messages. I've tried force stopping, clearing cache, Uninstalling, nothing works.
