Can you get welfare checks if you don't have any children?
Welfare is government aid intended to help those with little income, including the working poor. Aimed primarily at families with children, older individuals, and those who are disabled, welfare can include cash assistance, food stamps, and Medicaid.

About Food Stamps
The Food Stamp Program is a federal-assistance program that provides help in purchasing food to low- and no-income people and families living in the U.S. Though the program is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, benefits are distributed by the individual U.S. states. States used to use actual paper "stamps" or certificates that could be used to buy groceries, but now in most parts of the country a card is used, similar to a credit or debit card.
