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. Community Based Organizations: At time of application to become an E&T Services Provider the following assurances are made: • Cash or in-kind donations from other non-Federal sources have not been claimed or used as a match or reimbursement under any other Federal program. • Program and fiscal staff consulted and agreed that non-federal funding is approved and available to – initially fully fund E&T costs for the proposed agreement period. Providers complete a questionnaire and HHS reviews responses during the annual review process to answer the following: • Describe any policy or procedures in place to ensure Federal reimbursements are used to supplement, rather than supplant, state or local funding for existing education services or activities. Program costs charged to E&T for reimbursement are determined by dividing the total annual cost of providing the program by the total number of people, regardless of SNAP status, enrolled in the program. 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. Community Based Organizations: Participants are not charged to be enrolled in Work Readiness programs. Program costs charged to E&T for reimbursement are determined by dividing the total annual cost of providing the program by the total number of people, regardless of SNAP status, enrolled in the program.
