Working with SJI has helped us keep our fingers on the pulse of the SNAP E&T Program. We had little knowledge about other programs, program possibilities or the mechanics of a successful program until we began working with them.
SJI brought together the expertise of veteran public system leaders and access to a broad, national learning community to scope out local planning and support implementation of meaningful SNAP workforce services.
