Barely enough to survive on, and if you try to get a second job to supplement income, better hope you don’t go beyond the income limits. In Alabama, that’s $1,631/mo or about $407 per week. If you make $408? Congrats! No more SNAP.
Rice and beans have historically been pretty cheap. You can survive on SNAP if you’ve got a place to live and no other options. You certainly won’t be thriving.
It’s the economic equivalent of emergency life support.

SNAP benefits per person are very modest. Nationally, average monthly snap benefits per individual are $187 per month.
Well, look at these moneybags with 187 a month. My elderly neighbor on a fixed income gets 17.00 a month.
It’s garbage.

They are not enough to feed yourself, that’s for sure.
