CASE MANAGEMENT SERVICES The State E&T program must provide case management services to all E&T participants. In accordance with 7 CFR 273.7(c)(6)(ii), State agencies are required to include specific information about the provision of case management services in the E&T State plan. What types of E&T case management services will be offered to the participant? Select all that apply. Comprehensive Intake Assessments Individualized Service Plans Progress Monitoring Coordination with Service Providers Reassessment Other Who delivers the case management services in your State? Select all that apply. SNAP State agency Local Office(s) Intermediary E&T Providers How are case management services delivered in your State? Select all that apply. Group Meeting (virtual) Group Meeting (in person) Individual (virtual) Individual (in person) Phone Text Email Other Explain how else case management services are delivered in your State. Case management services are required in conjunction with SNAP E&T program activities. All E&T programs must consist of both case management and at least one E&T component. Approval of an organization’s SNAP Path to Work program budget(s) and inclusion in the State’s SNAP E&T State plan are dependent on the provider’s attestation that at least the minimum required case management will be delivered. Providers are given the choice to include case management activity and costs as a part of an E&T component budget (embedded case management) or to deliver, track and claim for case management activity separately. * SNAP Path to Work case management is generally embedded in traditional E&T programming; in such cases, a separate case management referral and enrollment process is unnecessary. The participant automatically receives case management as part of the E&T component for which they have been approved. If case management activity is delivered and tracked separately from traditional SNAP Path to Work programming, the client must be enrolled in and approved for case management in conjunction with a traditional E&T component. 1/29/26, 8:19 AM State Plan MA FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-mafy26stateplan//index.html 40/167
