IV. <br /> <br />This will be through working to secure adoptions, guardianships, and legal <br />custody arrangements, as well as working with Child Support to <br />aggressively pursue child support for the children. When Work First staff <br />are able to provide services to 'child-only' cases, it is the goal to improve <br />the living situations of 15 children each fiscal year. <br />Independence from Subsidized Transportation: Due to a lack of <br />transportation funding and the great need for assistance, Cabarrus County <br />DSS will closely work with all Work First Employment Services <br />participants to get the most effective use of transportation for them. This <br />will be for the joint purpose of promoting self-sufficiency by encouraging <br />them to take the initiative to make individual arrangements for their <br />ongoing transportation as quickly as possible after they are employed. <br />The other purpose will be to preserve funds for other participants who <br />might need this assistance during the year. Cabarrus County will continue <br />to pursue donated vehicles through the Cars to Work program to assist <br />clients in quickly becoming more independent through obtaining a car. It <br />is the goal to 'launch' all Work First individuals after 30 days of <br />subsidized transportation and make them independent of this service. <br /> <br />Plans to Achieve Outcomes and Goals <br /> <br />A. Activities <br /> <br />Unsubsidized Employment <br />a. Description: The emphasis on employment for Work First recipients, <br /> with unsubsidized being the primary emphasis, will be the first priority <br /> of business for Cabarms County. This will involve a wide span of <br /> services provided by both Employment social work staff and ESC <br /> contract staff to get recipients, and potential recipients, employed as <br /> quickly as possible. A wide span of primary and supportive services <br /> will be provided to make employment become a reality as quickly as <br /> possible. <br />b. Provision: DSS and ESC will be the primary agencies working to get <br /> recipients employed. It will involve both direct recipient focused <br /> service, as well as employer-focused services. These will be provided <br /> at both ESC and the Cabarms ESC/JobLink Career Center. <br />c. Contribution to meeting of goals: The unsubsidized employment <br /> emphasis will have a great impact on meeting several State and Local <br /> Work First goals. These include: <br /> Adults entering employment <br /> · Meeting both Federal Participation Rates <br /> · Providing employment services <br /> · Remaining off Work First for employment <br /> · Employed 6 and 12 months after leaving Work First <br /> · Reducing the Work First caseload <br /> · Prevention of welfare dependency <br /> <br /> <br />
