SNAP Trafficking - Responding to USDA FNS Violations and Civil Money Penalties This webinar will discuss how to respond to the USDA FNS notice of violations, including reversing violations, avoiding bans from SNAP program, reducing Civil Money Penalties, appeals, and avoiding penalties on the sale of a retail store.

In this webinar, the presenter will walk you through the next steps from responding to appeals.
