Shapiro Administration Launches New Initiative to Streamline Certification of Education and Training Programs that Help SNAP Recipients Meet Federal Guidelines, Put Food on the Table

The Shapiro Administration announces a new initiative that will streamline the certification of programs that help SNAP recipients meet federal work and reporting requirements, thereby maintaining their ability to feed themselves and their families.

Through the new program, education and training sites that are not currently certified in the SNAP Employment & Training program - but may be providing those services to SNAP recipients - can apply for streamlined certification through the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services (DHS). This new certification program will expand the number of training providers available across Pennsylvania and connect SNAP recipients to vital education, job training, and employment opportunities, helping them meet federal work and education reporting requirements signed into law by President Trump in July 2025.

Previously, education and training sites did not have an easy, fast way to receive DHS certification; this new initiative will make that process easier and ensure more Pennsylvanians are fed.

Speakers in Order:
Alycia A. Marshall, Ph.D. - President, Community College of Philadelphia
Hoa Pham - Deputy Secretary for the Office of Income Maintenance, PA Dept. of Human Services (DHS)
PatriciaBlumenauer - Deputy Secretary for Workforce Development, PA Dept. of Labor & Industry (L&I)
Gisela Lopez - Philadelphia Works', Senior Manager of Adult Workforce Systems
Zoe Schubert - Student, Community College of Philadelphia
