The SNAP E&T National Forum is the largest SNAP E&T event hosted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS). This bi-annual event convenes SNAP E&T stakeholders from across the country to learn about SNAP E&T policy and operations, share best practices, and discover innovative ideas for increasing skills and employment among SNAP households through State SNAP E&T programs.

The 2024 National Forum will offer diverse sessions centered around the theme of Momentum. Harnessing the energy across the country from new State partnerships, innovative approaches, and a new national campaign, More Than a Job, our National Forum theme of Momentum encapsulates FNS’ goal of building on SNAP E&T’s strong foundation—and continuing to strengthen and reimagine the program into the future.
