SNAP

SNAP is the local and regional advocate for the most vulnerable people living within our community. With a dedicated board of directors, staff and volunteers, SNAP diligently searches for long-term solutions to eliminate poverty.

 For nearly 50 years SNAP has served the Spokane region as a leading voice on poverty. As the Spokane area’s Community Action leader, SNAP takes the lead in educating and empowering our low-income neighbors. We’ve always believed that a hand-up goes a lot further than a hand-out, and have, since our inception, helped people transition from crisis to stability by caring for immediate needs while laying the foundation for future success.

Our mission always has been to provide access to needed resources, and to help people of low income make connections that create opportunities to work toward self-sufficiency.

The largest private human-services agency in Spokane County, SNAP’s staff focus on serving the whole family with a commitment to providing a wide-range of accessible services for those living in poverty.

Our mission is to provide access and connection to resources that create opportunity, with dignity, for people of low income. We serve over 43,000 people in and around Spokane County each year with education and empowerment to move beyond their barriers and create a better life.
