Formula Grant 265FL402S2520

The Florida Department of Children and Families received a formula grant award of $148,882 from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service under the State Administrative Matching Grants for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (CFDA 10.561), effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026. This award specifically funds the SNAP Employment and Training (E&T) 50% Partial Reimbursement component of the program, which supports state administrative costs associated with operating employment and training initiatives for SNAP participants.

The funding supports DCF's administration and delivery of SNAP E&T services designed to help eligible SNAP recipients gain employment skills and transition to self-sufficiency. As a state administrative matching grant, the award provides federal reimbursement for eligible operational expenses incurred in program administration, participant services, and related activities. DCF implements these services through partnerships with over 50 local non-profit organizations, community agencies, and managing entities across Florida's 67 counties, ensuring comprehensive employment and training support to vulnerable populations seeking to improve their economic circumstances.
