Snap enhanced program integrity

This federal Project Grant award for $331,424.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) under the SNAP Fraud Framework Implementation Grant Program (CFDA 10.535). The grant aims to support the West Virginia Department of Human Services (WVDHS) in enhancing program integrity within the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) through improved recipient fraud prevention, detection, and investigation efforts. The funding will enable WVDHS to develop organizational management practices, implement performance measurement techniques, create recipient integrity education initiatives, enhance fraud detection capabilities, improve investigation processes, advance data analytics, and invest in employee learning and development. This award will assist the state agency in implementing comprehensive strategies to minimize fraudulent activities within the nutrition assistance benefit system and improve overall SNAP program integrity.
