Food stamps for seniors?

I own my own home. However, I cannot get a reverse mortgage on this home as it (beautiful as it is) is in a senior park. Is it possible for me to get food stamps? I can hardly live on the ss ck I receive every month. I eat my large meals at the Senior Center for $5.00. I have no means of getting to my money other than selling my home. I would happily do that but the market is so depressed and I would not get that much. Any suggestions?

Call the Area Agency on Aging, perhaps they know of resources that you could use.

Most Senior Centers have a help desk with information on food stamps (SNAP) HEAP for Heating and Cooling and other services. Ask there.

Oregongirl - go to the Oregon Food Bank web site. You will find information regarding their program plus information for additional resources such as Meals-on Wheels.
