7 I. What is SNAP? 7
8 What is SNAP? Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program SNAP is a federally funded, means-tested entitlement program that provides certain low-income individuals and families with a monthly benefit that they can use to buy food. It is administered by the US Department of Agriculture, but has slightly different rules in every state. It used to be known as the Food Stamps program. 8
9 Quick SNAP Facts $134 The median SNAP benefit for households with an elderly person in 2013 ($113 for all living alone) 15.3% of elderly SNAP households received the minimum benefit in 2013 ($16 per month in 2013, now $15) 9.3% Proportion of all SNAP households with at least one person age 60 or older 1.3 average size of a SNAP household with at least one person age 60 or older in SNAP QC Data 9
10 Low Participation Rates However, only 42% of eligible seniors age 60 or older were enrolled in SNAP in This is much lower than the total SNAP participation rate of 83%. Source: USDA FNS 10

18 IV. Steps to Successful Outreach and Enrollment 18
19 Step 1: Assessing your Organization Model Strengths Challenges Aging network Strong relationships with seniors May lack expertise in SNAP Ethnic-focused Highly trusted; multilingual May not have broad reach Anti-hunger network Already doing outreach for SNAP Often child focused, not holistic Food banks Direct access to most in need Outreach often difficult Faith-based Highly trusted May not have broad reach Senior centers One-stop shop for seniors Funding and outreach Call centers Very high volume Highly complex, expensive model 19
20 Step 2: Assessing your Population Data Source Description Location American FactFinder Current Population Survey National Council on Aging Feeding America Map the Meal Gap Census data drawn from American Community Survey. Best resource for city-, county-, and neighborhood-level data. Yearly survey used to construct annual federal and state poverty rates. Visualizations of data, including senior SNAP participation. Provides a picture of food insecurity in communities. factfinder.census.gov ablecreator.html hunger-in-america/ourresearch/map-the-meal-gap/ 20
21 Step 3: Screening for Eligibility We recommend screening for benefits using BenefitsCheckUp, NCOA s free online screening tool, because it screens for many benefits all at once. But in your state, there may be a SNAP screening tool or online application system. Use whatever tool works best for you and your population. MSP $1,663 LIHEAP $375 SNAP $1,356 $12,985 LIS $4,000 Medicaid $5,591 21
22 Step 4: Providing Application Assistance In-person application assistance is best, though not always practical or applicable for every model. If possible, helping with applications at a client s home is most effective, as it prevents delays due to forgotten documentation. Clients who were mailed a blank application after a screening instead of a pre-filled application that simply needed a signature were less likely to ultimately submit the application. Building a relationship with your local SNAP office is critical to work out any potential pitfalls in the interviewing process, such as lack of translators or clients receiving notification letters after their scheduled interviews. 22
23 Step 5: Following Up Follow up with clients to Make sure they have received their benefits Note when they will need to apply for redetermination so your organization can remind them and help with the process Make sure they know how to use their benefits! EBT cards are similar to debit cards, but Seniors may not know that they can lend it to a caregiver to buy groceries for them. Seniors may discard cards after using them. Some seniors have a difficult time understanding how to use cards. 23
24 V. Best Practices in Outreach and Enrollment 24
25 Overcoming Stigma Other people are worse off than me. I was always taught you live off what you have. I don t need that. It s too much work for too little money. 25
26 Overcoming Stigma Other people are worse off than me. I was always taught you live off what you have. I don t need that. It s too much work for too little money. You paid taxes your whole life, and those taxes fund SNAP. Like Social Security, you re just claiming what you earned. Even if it s just $15 per month, that can help you afford your prescriptions. It s through the USDA, not HHS, and it helps local farmers and business. 26
27 Using Volunteers Volunteers used by SNAP Initiative partners include SHIP counselors Americorps VISTAs SeniorCorps volunteers RSVP volunteers SCSEP employees Promotoras Volunteers recruited and trained by a dedicated Volunteer Coordinator on staff 27
28 Building Partnerships Ideas for partnerships State agencies A strong relationship with your state agency is an absolute necessity! Other community-based organizations Commodity Supplemental Food Program distributors Community organizing groups Domestic careworkers Hospitals and other medical providers Local businesses 28
29 Outreach Materials NCOA has a large collection of templates at Among the most helpful materials are those which clearly indicate what documentation is necessary to apply for SNAP. Where should I put them? Credit unions and banks Public libraries Doctor s and dentist s offices Senior centers Senior residences Post offices Community centers Grocery stores Pharmacies Buses and other public transit 29
