## What the grant funds

Executive Summary: Consistent with USDA Secretary Rollins’ guiding principle to take swift action to minimize instances of fraud, waste, and program abuse in nutrition programs, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) Fraud Framework Implementation Grant Program supports State agency efforts to improve and expand recipient fraud prevention, detection, and investigation efforts using the procedures, ideas, and practices outlined in the SNAP Fraud Framework. Section 29(a) of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 (7 U.S.C. 2036b) authorizes FNS to prevent trafficking of SNAP benefits. Based on this authority, Congress has provided funding in annual appropriations in recent years to provide competitive grants to support State agencies in implementing SNAP’s Fraud Framework and to strengthen program integrity activities in SNAP. Up to $5 million has been appropriated in FY 2025 for State agencies to implement practices described in the SNAP Fraud Framework and each applicant may apply for up to $750,000 in funding. This funding opportunity will be offered on a competitive basis.
