Synopsis
Section 16(h)(1)(F) of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 (the Act), as amended by the Agricultural Act of 2014 (P.L. 113-79), provides $200 million for the development, implementation, and evaluation of up to ten pilot projects designed to reduce dependency and increase work effort under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). These pilots allow USDA and State partners to test a number of existing and new employment and training (E&T) activities in order to increase the number of SNAP work registrants who obtain unsubsidized employment, increase earned income, and reduce reliance on public assistance. Pilot projects may be in effect for up to three years.
Eligibility
Any of the 53 State agencies that administer SNAP (50 States and the District of Columbia, Guam, and the Virgin Islands) may apply for a grant. State agencies may apply on behalf of county-administered SNAP agencies that wish to operate a pilot. State agencies may submit more than one application. For example, a State agency may submit applications for two different project ideas or submit applications on behalf of several county-administered programs.
