Will this component be offered statewide? Yes No Projected Annual Participation. Projection should reflect a number of unduplicated individuals. 196 Estimated Annual Component Administrative Cost $268,849.00 Not supplanting. Describe how the State agency ensures that costs attributed to the E&T program are not supplanting funds used for other existing educational programs. Due to the number and variety of contracted Providers, this is verified during the fiscal and program monitoring process. Provider budget documents contain language related to supplementing vs supplanting. Providers are required to explain, in detail, how existing educational services are continued and which new services are provided through the use of SNAP CAN funds. This is verified through examining supporting documentation. Participant counts are verified and analyzed in addition to a robust examination of internal controls regarding supplementation. Cost parity. Describe how the State agency ensures that costs charged to E&T do not exceed the costs charged for non-E&T participants. This clause is included in SNAP CAN Provider contracts, and the Individualized Service Budget approval process coupled with fiscal monitoring ensures relevant training costs (e.g. staff salary, goods and materials, and facilities costs) are all reasonable. Purchasing/procurement processes and a random sample of individual purchases are evaluated to ensure costs are compliant with federal cost principles at 2 CFR 200. Any tuition/training costs are also verified to align with publicly offered services. Outcome Measure Describe the methodology for the outcome reporting measure.
