OLGT 2015-58: Bay State CAP Conversion and Automatic Recertification of Bay State CAP AA Forms

Bay State CAP, implemented in 2005, was developed through the cooperative effort of the Department of Transitional Assistance (DTA), the Social Security Administration (SSA) and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Over the past two years, there has been a steady decline in the number of Bay State CAP households that have originated from the SSA, even though many SNAP clients who receive SSI are eligible for Bay State CAP. 

DTA guidance announces conversion of 16,000 SSI SNAP cases back to Bay State CAP program.
