PROGRAM CHANGES Summarize changes for the upcoming Federal fiscal year (FY) from the prior FY. Significant changes may include new initiatives, changes in funding or funding sources, policy changes, or significant changes to the number of partners or participants. Significant changes could include those made as a result of management evaluation findings or participation in program improvement initiatives, such as SNAP to Skills. It is not necessary to include changes made as a result of new Federal rulemaking. The significant changes to FFY 2026 include: • Reporting – In addition to required federal reports, FloridaCommerce continues work on developing other standard reports to increase outcome data that can be extracted for SNAP E&T participants. Highlight any changes from above that the State agency is making to the E&T program based on the prior year’s performance, for instance changes made as a result of E&T outcome and participation data. FloridaCommerce is working with its Workforce Statistics and Economic Research, the Reimagining Education and Career Help (REACH) Office and CareerSource Florida to determine data that would be valuable in illustrating the success and areas of opportunity for the E&T program. As an example, FloridaCommerce extracted the SNAP participant subset in the Letter Grades report and analyzed the data for information that would be useful in enhancing reported program outcomes and is exploring options to track exemptions granted due to lack of availability of SNAP E&T components in local areas. Additionally, DCF, CareerSource Florida, and FloridaCommerce’s policy and data teams will meet monthly to discuss program outcomes and data. This collaborative meeting will generate discussions regarding program metric definitions and outcome data that supports continued growth of Florida’s E&T program. 1/28/26, 11:18 AM State Plan FL FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-flfy26stateplan//index.html 4/99
