How do your offered case management services support the participant in the E&T program and provide activities and resources that help the participant achieve program goals? The offered case management services provide a regular touch point for participants to assess goals, identify areas that are going well, areas that need attention and any new or removed barriers. The case management includes a wide range of activities such as career planning and are designed to assist with career planning, coordination of supportive services, and ongoing support for job placement and retention. Vendors are required to provide case management at least bi-weekly with the targeted goals of barrier removal and progress towards gainful employment. Case Management is offered in-person and/or virtually. How does the SNAP State agency ensure the case management services offered do not act as an impediment to successful participation in E&T? The SNAP E&T will implement random customer checks during review of Quarterly Reporting to check in with participants. 1/29/26, 11:10 AM State Plan MD FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-mdfy26stateplan//index.html 27/298
