SNAP E&T Components Overview

This document lists and defines the full range of components available to be offered through state SNAP Employment and Training (SNAP E&T) programs in compliance with 7 CFR 273.7(e)(2). States can use these plain language tables as a guide to better understand and report to FNS on the services and activities offered through their SNAP E&T program. Accurate reporting on participation as part of the SNAP E&T state plan and the FNS-583 is critical to the operation of an effective program in compliance with FNS regulations. 

The document defines all components, organized into the following categories of SNAP E&T components:

• Education
• Work Experience
• Non-Education, Non-Work

For each component, this tool provides a plain language definition of the component, an example of activities that are commonly found as a part of that component, and a reference of who would be appropriate to participate in the particular component.
