Abstract:
In accordance with Section 16(h)(5) of the Food and Nutrition Act (FNA), as amended by section 4022 of the Agriculture Act of 2014, and 7 CFR 273.7(c)(17) the Department requires that State agencies report outcome data for the Supplemental Nutrition Employment Program (SNAP) Employment and Training (E&T) programs. In order for FNS to monitor the effectiveness of E&T programs State agencies are required to report outcome data on five separate reporting measures: (1) the number and percentage of E&T participants who retain employment 2 quarters and 4 quarters after completing E&T; (2) the median wages for participants with earnings 2 quarters after completion of E&T; (3) the number and percentage of participants that completed a training, education, work experience or on-the-job training component; (4) certain unique characteristics of SNAP E&T participants; and (5) additional reporting requirements for State agencies that pledge to serve all at-risk Able-bodied Adults without Dependents (ABAWDs). State agencies are also required to identify appropriate reporting measures for each proposed component that serves a threshold number of participants of at least 100 a year. State agencies identify the reporting measures for these components in State agencies’ E&T plans and report the outcome data to the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) through State agencies’ annual reports. State agencies are required to report outcome data annually.

Short Statement:
This is a revision for a currently approved data collection. The Department had previously posted this as an extension without a change but are changing to a revision after reviewing current estimates. The currently approved burden is for 53 States, 12,233 total annual burden hours and 373 total annual responses. The change in the burden is 53 states, 9,159 total annual burden hours and 320 total annual responses The reason for the change is due to the addition of 106 hours for States to identify State component measures in the annual E&T State Plan under 7 CFR 273.7(c)(6)(xviii). As well as reduction of 3,180 hours due to combining the hours associated with the burden for the employment and earnings measures under 7 CFR 273.7(c)(17)(i)-(iii). In the previous collection each measure was calculated separately, however after four years of Annual reports the Department has realized that these measures are collected simultaneously and do not require separate actions on the part of the State agencies. These two changes are resulting in a overall reduction of -3,074 hours and -53 total annual responses.
