Description

Public assistance program which focuses on the overall family's well-being and provides resources to move to employment quickly, whether this be through up-skilling or through help with interview and job search skills. Support service monies are utilized to address childcare, transportation, and work-related costs that could be impediments to employment. As recipients face a five-year time limit on receiving public assistance benefits, the program utilizes one-on-one group initiatives and counseling to facilitate participant success and self-sufficiency. Follow-up is provided to support job retention and reduce program recurrence.
