Virginia to pay millions for faking food stamp reviews
The Virginia Department of Social Services (VDSS) has reached a $7,150,436 settlement to resolve a case in which it was accused of violating the False Claims Act in its administration of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as the Food Stamp Program.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) provides eligible low-income individuals and families with financial assistance to buy nutritious food through the SNAP program. The program has served, on average, more than 45 million Americans per month since 2010, and provided funds in excess of $71 billion annually.
“SNAP is an important vehicle for helping needy families,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Chad A. Readler of the Justice Department’s Civil Division. “This settlement reflects the Justice Department’s commitment to ensuring that taxpayer funds are spent appropriately so that the public can have confidence in the integrity of vital programs like SNAP.”

ReplyDeleteJulie Osnes, owner of Julie Osnes Consulting (JOC), has dedicated her 37+ year career to accurate administration of the SNAP Program.
No mention that the consulting company is going to be sued, even though it knew that what it was doing was illegal and indefensibly wrong.
