Snap program access EBT project

The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service awarded a $395,289.50 cooperative agreement to the Virginia Department of Social Services Division of Finance from September 30, 2022 to September 30, 2025. The award supports the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Employment and Training (E&T) Data and Technical Assistance Grants program (CFDA 10.537).

Under this cooperative agreement, the Division of Finance will assist the state and local agencies in Virginia in developing their capacity to collect, analyze, and report SNAP E&T participant outcome data as required by federal law. Funding will support the state's efforts to build data and technical infrastructure for ongoing SNAP E&T performance measurement and management. This includes supporting local workforce development boards and other partners that operate SNAP E&T programs. The goals of this work align with the broader objectives of the SNAP E&T Data and Technical Assistance Grants program.
