How To Report Stolen Snap Benefits?

Location: Richmond, Va

My brother (32m) has been struggling with homelessness for the past year. Around four months ago, back in May, he was able to get help from a program called, "Leap of faith". They were supposed to provide shelter, three meals a day, and help him find a more permanent residence.

Instead, a week ago, I get a call from my brother. The people running the "Program" stole his benefits card. Stating he wasn't being a team player, and kicked him out. (They did eventually give him his card back, but they had already spent hundreds over the months they took it.) He was locking himself in the bathroom at night so he wouldn't be robbed again during his time there. There were no written notices that he received at any point for him, yet they stated he was actually past the programs end and that they were doing him "a favor" by allowing him to stay so long. They started gaslighting him to try and make him think HE was in the wrong.

As my question asks... who would I report this to? CAN I even report it without physical evidence?
