Goodwill Receives SNAP E&T National Partnership Grant From USDA
From USDA
announced that Goodwill Industries International, the
largest nonprofit workforce provider in North America,
is one of four national nonprofits that will receive a new grant to strengthen Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program
Employment and Training programs (SNAP E&T).
This grant will significantly increase the reach and
capabilities of these programs, which help SNAP
participants build economic self-sufficiency.
The USDA is providing more than $6.7 million in SNAP E&T national partnership grants to four leading nonprofit organizations — Goodwill Industries International, the National Association of Workforce Boards, the American Public Human
Services Association and the Roberts Enterprise Development Fund — to help enlarge program capacity to serve SNAP participants.
Grantees will use the funds to develop materials, train
subject matter experts, and work with member or affiliate organizations to expand SNAP E&T.
