Estimated Annual Component Administrative Cost $2,652,849.15 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. SNAP E&T program staff are responsible for monitoring all program costs and reviewing documentation of leveraged funding to ensure compliance with federal regulations prohibiting the supplanting of non-Federal funds. Funded component activities must not replace existing educational services or activities that are already supported by non-Federal sources. This policy is strictly enforced and clearly outlined during the annual Request for Applications (RFA) process, the RFA information session, and grantee onboarding. 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. SNAP E&T program staff are responsible for monitoring all program costs and reviewing documentation of leveraged funding to ensure that expenses charged to E&T do not exceed those charged to other funding sources for comparable services. This cost consistency requirement is clearly outlined during the annual Request for Applications (RFA) process, reinforced in the RFA information session, and emphasized during grantee onboarding.
