Food Stamps
The Food Stamp program can help you buy food, if you qualify.  The Food Stamp program has higher income limits than some other programs, so you may want to consider applying even if you are denied other assistance.

LAWNY has special help available in Wayne and Yates counties to help you get food stamps.  Call LAFL at 315-781-1465 for more information.

If you believe you need food stamps, the only way for any legal services office to figure out whether you were properly denied is to see the written denial from DSS.  Apply and ask for a copy of the denial.

About LawNY

LawNY is a non-profit law firm that provides free legal aid to people who live in 14 counties in western New York.

LawNY offices may be able to help you with problems such as welfare terminations, divorces, evictions, SSI denials, or other problems if you live in one of these counties we cover.

Because our funding is limited, we can't help everyone who wants a lawyer. For more information, click here.
