Completing an application for Medicaid and SNAP services can be incredibly challenging for individuals with poor education or limited literacy skills. Additionally, those with physical or mental disabilities may face barriers in understanding and filling out the necessary paperwork. Busy schedules, especially for individuals juggling work and childcare responsibilities, can also make it difficult to find the time to navigate the application process effectively.
