Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program federal funding in California

Three SNAP awards tagged to California

CFDA 10.551 is Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. California (CA) is the place-of-performance state. Their intersection is $28,557,674,965.64 and 3 records. A 10.551 award tagged to Nevada or Oregon is not here. A California school-lunch, SSDI, VA, or disaster-grant row is a different CFDA. This page does not add those programs to the SNAP total.

Three awards against $28,557,674,965.64 yields a mean of about $9,519,224,989 per record. That mean is arithmetic on packet facts, not a typical household’s monthly benefit. SNAP funding is often booked as a handful of large assistance actions to a state agency. This packet does not name the recipients of the 3 rows.

Sacramento did not “win” $28,557,674,965.64 by appearing as a geography code. USDA did not “choose California” in a sense this extract can prove. Correlation of 10.551 with CA is not causation. The overlay Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program in California is the live table.

What SNAP means on USAspending.gov

The official catalog title is SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM. SpendingVault does not grade California’s SNAP error rate, its restaurant-meals option, or its caseload. $28,557,674,965.64 is an obligation sum, not a policy verdict. CFDA 10.551 is the national hub without the California filter. This packet has no national SNAP total, so none is quoted.

FNS caseload files and CDSS dashboards are other series. They are not the 3 USAspending.gov awards. Mixing a household count from those files with this join would invent a per-household dollar figure the packet does not support.

California’s statewide book besides 10.551

California federal spending covers every CFDA coded to the state. California programs is the catalog directory, including school lunch (10.555) which is a different nutrition line. $28,557,674,965.64 is one cell. Quoting it as California’s entire federal nutrition book would drop school lunch and every other USDA line.

Place-of-performance California on a SNAP vehicle is often a state agency address. It is not a map of where groceries were purchased. This packet has no county or EBT-region split of the $28,557,674,965.64.

Obligation versus EBT cash

An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment. $28,557,674,965.64 is the commitment figure. EBT issuances are payment-side stories. This page does not convert the 3 awards into those cash flows.

The California budget and CDSS appropriations answer other questions. They are not the source of this USAspending.gov cell. Keep the citation on CFDA aggregates by place of performance state.

How to cite the 10.551–California join

Cite: Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (CFDA 10.551) obligated $28,557,674,965.64 on 3 awards coded to California, per USAspending.gov. Keep both keys. Keep “obligations.” Do not invent a fiscal year. All spending ties stores this pair with other program-by-state pages.

Later bulk files can move the dollars and the 3-award count. Prefer the overlay Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program in California when the live table and this snapshot diverge.

What 3 rows will not be asked to prove

This page will not treat 3 awards as 3 counties or 3 consortia. It will not compute a per-capita SNAP figure because the packet has no population. It will not rank California against other states on 10.551. Peer totals are not in these facts.

School lunch, SSDI, VA compensation, survivors insurance, and disaster grants remain outside $28,557,674,965.64. California federal spending, California programs, CFDA 10.551, and All spending ties are the parent hubs. None of them recasts this join as a grade of California’s SNAP program or as an outlay.

The mean of about $9.52 billion per record will mislead anyone who treats it as a typical household year. There is no household count here. There is $28,557,674,965.64 and 3 awards. That is the entire numeric claim. Keep both the program name and California in every citation sentence.

Three rows holding a large SNAP book is a booking pattern, not evidence of missing data. Inferring incompleteness from a short award list would confuse how USAspending.gov stores federal-to-state assistance. The packet does not publish vehicle type. Treat this JSON as a packet snapshot. If a later ingest disagrees, the overlay wins.

Questions

How much SNAP is obligated in California?

USAspending.gov records $28,557,674,965.64 in CFDA 10.551 obligations across 3 awards coded to California. That is a program × state join, not an outlay and not California’s full federal total.

Can 3 awards hold $28.6 billion?

Award count is a row count. $28,557,674,965.64 ÷ 3 is about $9.52 billion per record as a mean. Large federal-to-state SNAP vehicles can dominate dollars. This packet does not list recipients.

Is this California’s SNAP caseload?

No. The $28,557,674,965.64 and 3 awards are USAspending.gov obligation records for CFDA 10.551 with a California geography tag. Caseload lives in other FNS and CDSS publications.

Where is the live overlay?

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program in California is the overlay. See California federal spending, California programs, CFDA 10.551, and All spending ties. Later ingests override this snapshot.
