Employment and Workforce, the Vocational Rehabilitation Department, the Commission for the Blind, the Department of Education/Adult Education, the Department on Aging, and the Department of Social Services’ Temporary Assistance to Needy Families program. Describe the extent to which the State agency is carrying out SNAP E&T programs in coordination with title I programs under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA). Continuing the work from FY2024 centered around co-enrollment of WIOA and SNAP E&T participants, a pilot study is being established in one local workforce development area to explore ways to better align service delivery of co-enrolled participants. Ideally, both programs will identify opportunities to leverage services to fully serve the dually enrolled customers and thereby improving individual outcomes. As a partner with a WIOA Combined Plan, SC's SNAP E&T continues to coordinate efficient and effective service delivery for job seekers under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act. Is SNAP E&T included as a partner in the State's WIOA Combined Plan? Yes No Describe how the State agency is coordinating with TANF/GA programs, services, partners, and/or activities. Describe any TANF/GA special initiatives targeting specific populations and any actions taken to coordinate with these efforts. SC intends to utilize TANF “leaver” data as a source of potential referrals to the E&T program. Additionally, E&T leadership will connect with TANF management to provide targeted, refresher trainings on at least a quarterly basis on the benefits to TANF participants of joining the E&T program. SC aims to build upon the existing relationships established between TANF and E&T case managers to ideally generate additional, quality referrals to the E&T program. Describe how the State agency is coordinating its SNAP E&T program with any other Federal or State employment program (e.g. HUD, child support, re-entry, refugee services). During FY25, SNAP E&T presented to Child Support Services and collaborated to share the benefits of referring participants to the program. Additionally, SNAP E&T presented to the SC Center for Fathers and Families on the benefits of the programs forging better collaborative communication. These presentations have resulted in stronger, local connections and SC intends to build upon this momentum in FY26. 1/29/26, 9:36 AM State Plan SC FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-scfy26stateplan//index.html 7/125
