SNAP E&T
In partnership with Easterseals-Goodwill Northern Rocky Mountain Inc., Career Transitions is a service provider for the SNAP Employment and Training (SNAP E&T) program in Gallatin County. It is funded by a grant with US Department of Agriculture (USDA), Food and Nutrition Services (FNS). The SNAP E&T program helps SNAP participants gain skills and find work that moves them forward to self-sufficiency. Through SNAP E&T, SNAP participants have access to training and support services to help them enter or move up in the workforce. These programs also help to reduce barriers to work by providing support services – such as transportation, work clothing, and training-related expenses – as participants prepare for and obtain employment. The program focuses on Able Bodied Adults without Dependents (ABAWDS), but if slots are available other SNAP recipients may participate in SNAP E&T.
This institution is an equal opportunity provider.
