The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service awarded the Minnesota Department of Children, Youth, and Families $13.834 million on October 2, 2025, under the State Administrative Matching Grants for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (CFDA 10.561), a Formula Grant assistance type.

The award funds state administrative expenses to operate SNAP, including employment and training (E&T) initiatives and reimbursable administrative costs. The funding obligated through October 2, 2026, supports Minnesota's administration of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program statewide. The recipient state agency must submit a plan of operation prior to approval and maintain financial records, supporting documents, and statistical records for three years. Budgets are due to FNS by August 15 annually, and the state is subject to single audit requirements for SNAP administrative expense funding.
