Policy

FAA is required to make the rules and regulations that identify how FAA determines NA and CA eligibility and benefit amounts available to the public during work hours. To assist with public review, FAA provides constant access to the rules and regulations on the Internet through the Cash and Nutrition Assistance Policy (CNAP) Manual at the following link:

https://des.az.gov/services/basic-needs/family-assistance/family-assistance-policy-manual

When unable to find the policy they are looking for in the CNAP Manual, the public or staff should call FAA Policy Support using the FAA Policy Support Navigational Help Desk telephone number at (602) 774-5523. This help desk is available from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding state holidays.
