OMB 0584-0683

To gain Federally allocated SNAP-Ed grants to conduct SNAP-Ed activities every year, such as nutrition education and obesity prevention services, States must submit a SNAP-Ed State Plan and a SNAP-Ed Annual Report. The SNAP-Ed State Plan must be created based on SNAP-Ed Plan Guidance (https://snaped.fns.usda.gov/program-administration/snap-ed-plan-guidance-and-templates) and then reviewed and approved by FNS Regional Offices before SNAP-Ed funding can be utilized. The information contained in SNAP-Ed State Plans and Annual Reports is used by FNS to determine whether SNAP-Ed Program resources are being maximized, and whether State SNAP agencies have produced a persuasive and data-driven needs evaluation of nutrition, physical activity, and obesity prevention needs of the target population and their barriers to obtaining healthy foods and physical activity in the State SNAP-Ed Plan. Furthermore, the information is necessary to ensure integrity of SNAP-Ed funds, demonstrate program effectiveness, and track SNAP-Ed outcomes and impacts.
