SNAP E&T

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Employment and Training

Goodwill NNE’s SNAP E&T program helps people receiving SNAP benefits find work. The program connects clients with a career advisor. Career advisors help with resumes, cover letters, interview prep, finding educational/training programs and more. Clients are also eligible for financial assistance with employment-related costs, such as work clothes and shoes, supplies or textbooks.

The SNAP E&T program helped client Donavon achieve his goals of obtaining his CDL license and finding a job. Goodwill helped Donavon sign up for a CDL course, paid for his license and car repairs to get to and from the program, and provided gas cards for travel.  

This program is currently offered in Maine, with hopes of expanding services in our territory. Most referrals for Goodwill’s SNAP E&T program come from Maine Department of Health and Human Services. If you’re interested in enrolling in the program, a referral is needed.
