Improve Service Delivery Benefits to Recipients Eliminates stigma associated with using food stamps Benefits will be in client account on a specific day Don’t have to stand in line or go pick up food stamps Benefits to County Won’t have to handle food stamp stock (like currency) With cash EBT, no lost check searches – save time
