The Borough of Bloomingdale has released a new resource guide to help residents navigate the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as food stamps.

According to the official borough announcement dated October 28, 2025, the Passaic County SNAP Benefits Resource Guide is now available on the town's website to assist local families and individuals who may qualify for food assistance.

SNAP provides monthly benefits to eligible low-income households to purchase food at authorized retailers. The program serves as a crucial safety net for families struggling with food insecurity, helping them maintain adequate nutrition while managing other essential expenses.

The resource guide comes at a time when many families continue to face economic challenges and rising food costs. By making this information readily accessible, Bloomingdale officials aim to ensure residents are aware of available assistance programs and understand the application process.

The document is available as a PDF download on the Borough of Bloomingdale's official website under the clerk's section. Residents can access the guide at any time to learn about eligibility requirements, application procedures, and additional resources available through Passaic County.

For residents who need assistance accessing the online resource or have questions about SNAP benefits, they are encouraged to contact the Borough Clerk's office during regular business hours. Additional information about county-level food assistance programs may also be available through Passaic County's social services department.
