This $999,600 Formula Grant, awarded on September 18, 2023 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service under the State Administrative Matching Grants for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) program (CFDA 10.561), will provide federal financial assistance to the Community Action Partnership for costs incurred in operating SNAP. This includes covering administrative expenses related to determining eligibility, issuing benefits, providing employment and training services, conducting outreach and nutrition education initiatives, and overseeing processes to maintain program integrity and prevent fraud. The funding aims to help low-income individuals and families obtain adequate nutrition through SNAP while promoting self-sufficiency through skills training and workforce development efforts. The Community Action Partnership may further distribute sub-awards to state agencies, county governments, non-profits, educational institutions, workforce boards, food banks, and community organizations to execute SNAP administration and deliver employment, training, nutrition education, and related support services locally.
