Key Points
- The SNAP Employment and Training (E&T) program helps SNAP participants to gain the skills, training, and work experience needed to build a career and achieve long-term stability.
- Through the SNAP E&T program, participants can get help finding a job, training for a new career, or advancing in their current field while receiving support such as case management, transportation assistance, childcare, books, and supplies.
- All states receive federal funding to operate a SNAP E&T program that helps participants find work and meet state or local workforce needs.
- SNAP state agencies can also partner with local workforce development providers, such as community-based organizations and community colleges, to offer SNAP E&T services.
