Snap program evaluation and modernization

This federal Cooperative Agreement award of $550,826.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Employment and Training (E&T) Data and Technical Assistance Grants program (CFDA 10.537). The funds are awarded to the Ohio Department of Job & Family Services (ODJFS) to develop the state's capacity for collecting, analyzing, and reporting data on SNAP E&T program participants and outcomes as required by the Food and Nutrition Act. The grant supports activities such as enhancing data systems, conducting analysis, providing training, and implementing process improvements to strengthen SNAP E&T administration and service delivery in Ohio. As the designated state agency, ODJFS partners with county agencies, non-profit organizations, and other local entities to administer SNAP and deliver services to Ohio residents through a network of local offices and community partners.
