Opportunity Information: Apply for FY23 SNAP LDP
FY23-SNAP-LDP is a competitive federal grant opportunity run by the US Department of Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), focused on helping states participate in the SNAP Longitudinal Data Project (LDP). The authority for these awards comes from Section 17(n) of the Act, which allows FNS to provide grants to state agencies that take part in this effort. The basic goal is to strengthen and expand states ability to contribute to and benefit from longitudinal SNAP-related data work, especially research that tracks outcomes over time and, where appropriate, across state lines.
For FY 2023, FNS made up to $5,000,000 available in total funding under this opportunity, with an expectation of about five awards. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which usually means the federal agency expects to be more actively involved than it would be with a simple grant, often through collaboration, technical input, or ongoing coordination during the period of performance. The assistance listing (CFDA) tied to this opportunity is 10.577, and the activity category is Food and Nutrition.
Eligible applicants are state governments, specifically state agencies that participate in SNAP and are positioned to engage in the SNAP LDP. The program is designed to accommodate a range of participation levels. States can propose projects that involve transmitting data to the US Census Bureau for longitudinal research, building or improving systems that support state-led longitudinal research, forming or expanding partnerships that make longitudinal analysis possible, or developing internal state databases designed for longitudinal research that can also transmit relevant data to Census. The solicitation emphasizes that states can choose an approach that matches their capacity and needs, then request the amount of funding necessary to support that chosen level of effort.
A major feature of FY23-SNAP-LDP is that it is structured as multi-year funding, recognizing that technology, data modernization, procurement, and implementation timelines often do not fit neatly into a single fiscal year. The performance period can last up to four years, running roughly from August 2023 through September 2027, giving states time to plan, procure, build, test, implement, and operationalize data processes or systems tied to longitudinal data sharing and analysis.
The opportunity also makes clear that states that applied in prior years but were not selected are strongly encouraged to apply again. At the same time, states that previously received SNAP LDP grant funding are allowed to reapply in FY 2023, but only for a new project or for an addition or expansion that is clearly distinct from the previously funded work. FY 2023 funds cannot be used to continue or pay for an already existing grant project, and proposals need to explicitly show how the new request differs from prior funded activities. One example implied by the notice is a state that previously focused on sending data to Census now proposing a different, additive effort such as building an internal longitudinal database or expanding infrastructure and partnerships to support broader longitudinal research capacity.
Key administrative details include the posting date of April 27, 2023, and an original application closing date of June 26, 2023. The listed award ceiling is $5,000,000, reflecting the total funding available for the competition. Overall, the grant is aimed at improving how states manage, link, and share SNAP-related data for long-term, policy-relevant analysis, while giving states flexibility to pursue the participation pathway that best fits their technical environment and research goals.Apply for FY23 SNAP LDP
