SNAP state administrative matching grants in California (CFDA 10.561)

Administration matching, not SNAP benefits, in California

CFDA 10.561 is titled STATE ADMINISTRATIVE MATCHING GRANTS FOR THE SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. The catalog funds state administrative matching for SNAP operations. It is not CFDA 10.551, the SNAP benefits line. Filtered to California place of performance, 10.561 obligations sum to $8,283,972,954.26 on 35 awards. Mixing benefit issuances into that total would invent a figure this packet does not contain.

The national 10.561 hub includes every other state. California federal spending includes every other program. This tie is the intersection. $8,283,972,954.26 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of households, EBT cards, or county welfare offices in Los Angeles, Sacramento, or San Diego.

Packet facts stop at California, CFDA 10.561, $8,283,972,954.26, and 35 awards. Recipient names and caseload counts are absent. Do not invent contractors, counties, or award recipients. No fiscal year appears in the packet. Correlation is not causation.

10.561 versus 10.551 in California

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits (CFDA 10.551) and other USDA nutrition catalogs sit on different numbers. Mixing those dollars into $8,283,972,954.26 would invent a broader total than this 10.561 × CA cell contains. Facts available: California, CFDA 10.561, $8,283,972,954.26, 35 awards. The program name on the packet is State Administrative Matching Grants For The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

Dividing $8,283,972,954.26 by 35 yields about $236.68 million per award. That average is typical of a modest number of large state-administration instruments, not a typical household allotment and not a median. Unique recipients are unpublished. Thirty-five is not a count of California counties, households, or offices.

California geography on the 10.561 tag

CA is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to Sacramento, Los Angeles, or another California locality can share the tag. Awards coded to Oregon, Nevada, or Arizona stay outside $8,283,972,954.26 even when a metro or commuting pattern crosses a border. The code does not convert $8.28 billion into a county caseload map.

California federal spending is the all-program parent. 10.561 is one row on California programs. $8,283,972,954.26 is not the state's complete federal footprint. Open State Administrative Matching Grants For The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program in California for the filtered table, CFDA 10.561 for the program without a California filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into this cell.

Reading 35 awards under $8.28 billion

$8,283,972,954.26 ÷ 35 is about $236.68 million per award. The figure is not a median and is not a cost per household. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 35 as a USAspending award-record count, not as 35 finished eligibility systems.

Without a transaction register on this page, you cannot see how many of the 35 rows are continuations, renewals, or corrections. Later ingests can restate $8,283,972,954.26 without changing the join key of 10.561 and CA.

What the 10.561–California pair does not prove

A SNAP administrative-matching total tagged to California does not measure food security, error rates, or households served, and it does not equal cash disbursed. It also does not equal SNAP benefit issuances. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $8,283,972,954.26 on 35 awards for CFDA 10.561 in California.

Keep both sides of the join: State Administrative Matching Grants For The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and California, obligations only. Do not annualize $8,283,972,954.26 without a year field. Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than a nutrition-policy story.

All spending ties is the directory of other pairs.

This page exists because two tables meet: a CFDA program and a place-of-performance state. It does not exist to argue that California won or lost federal money, that donations paid for the awards, or that obligations equal cash. The pair is 10.561 plus CA. Obligations of $8,283,972,954.26 are not outlays.
