To provide good service and to help food stamp customers get informational materials, the Food Stamp Program (FSP) provides a toll free 800 number.

Callers wishing to receive food stamp informational materials will be prompted to leave their names and mailing addresses. These customers also have an option that enables them to hear their State's toll free number. All customers calling the toll free number are asked how they learned about the number.
