You can also call 1-877-423-4746 or visit your local county office for more information and assistance.
Food stamps
Your food stamps may have been cut off because you are no longer working. However, you may still be eligible for food stamps if you are receiving cancer treatment. You can reapply for food stamps and explain your situation to the caseworker. You may also be eligible for a hardship exemption, which would allow you to continue receiving food stamps even if you are not working.
To reapply for food stamps, you can visit the Georgia Department of Human Services website or call 1-888-424-4373.
Medicaid
Medicaid is a government health insurance program for low-income people. You may be eligible for Medicaid if you have a low income and are receiving cancer treatment. You can apply for Medicaid online or by calling 1-800-729-1069.
Other resources
There are also a number of other resources available to help you with food and financial assistance. Here are a few:
