Program Integration: The SNAP Employment and Training (E&T) Program, although distinct from TANF/GA, operates within the same Division of Public Assistance (DPA). This arrangement fosters seamless integration; for instance, TANF case managers can refer clients to SNAP E&T providers, thereby improving access to vital employment and training resources. Resource Coordination: Within the Division of Public Assistance, a dedicated Program Coordinator 2 oversees the sharing of resources between the TANF and SNAP E&T programs. This coordination is essential for aligning the administration of both programs, ensuring efficiency, and enhancing support for our shared client base. Describe how the State agency is coordinating its SNAP E&T program with any other Federal or State employment program (e.g. HUD, child support, re-entry, refugee services). Currently all SNAP E&T providers provide services to the re-entry population. Frontier Community Services has braided its re-entry program with SNAP E&T to provide additional employment services to this population. The SNAP E&T program team is currently having discussions with the Refugee Resettlement program at Catholic Social Services regarding the development of an E&T partnership. 1/27/26, 9:34 AM State Plan AK FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-akfy26stateplan//index.html 7/97
