REFERRAL TO E&T In accordance with 7 CFR 273.7(c)(2), in order to participate in SNAP E&T, the State agency must make the referral. The referral method may vary from participant to participant. What information does the State provide to E&T participants when they are referred? Select all that apply. Information about accessing E&T services Case Management Dates Contact information Other How is the referral communicated? Select all that apply. Orally Electronic Forms Physical Forms Emails Text Messages Other If the State receives a reverse referral request from an E&T provider, what steps does the State take? We use reverse referrals only with our third-party partners. If they are screening someone from the community for their program and find that they are on SNAP and want to participate through SNAP E&T, they confirm with us (IMPACT policy), via a dedicated email address, that the person is on SNAP. If so, IMPACT policy will send the participant information to eligibility (State merit staff) to have them refer the participant so they are scheduled for an orientation as soon as possible so the person can become a SNAP E&T participant and benefit from supportive services, etc. They will receive a notice in the mail regarding their SNAP Volunteer (SVOL) Orientation and Assessment (OAS) appointment. When they attend their SVOL OAS they will be given information regarding participant reimbursements they may be eligible to receive. Rights and responsibilities are discussed during initial eligibility interview as well as during their OAS. 1/29/26, 8:20 AM State Plan IN FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-infy26stateplan//index.html 19/127
