Additional Nutrition Resources

The Just Say Yes to Fruits and Vegetables (JSY) program is dedicated to improving the health and nutritional status of food stamp populations in New York State (NYS). Likewise, JSY is committed to providing the community with the best nutrition resources. In addition to the materials provided on our website, please see the list of additional JSY partners and community-based organizations who also share in this pledge.

No one should go hungry in America. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-SNAP (formally called the Food Stamp Program) provides children and low-income people access to food, a healthful diet and nutrition education. If someone you know in NYS needs information on SNAP please visit: www.fns.usda.gov or call the Office of Temporary Disability and Assistance at-800-342-3009 and press "1" for SNAP (or Food Stamps).
