e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />b. Who will carry these services out: Employment staff from the department, <br /> with assistance from CCCDC staff will work with clients to carry the IDA <br /> program out and meet this goal. <br />c. Location of these services: Services will be provided jointly at DSS and <br /> CCCDC, which is located in Concord, NC. <br />d. Measurement of outcomes: Through close work with CCCDC, the <br /> department will keep statistics of IDA's established. During the first two <br /> years of this program, there may be little results of outcomes, due to the lack <br /> of accumulation of funds in the accounts. <br /> <br />Securing Optimal Living Situations for Children in Child-Only Work First <br />Cases <br /> <br />a. Activities/support services that will enable us to meet this goal: Our vision <br /> for children in Cabarrus County is that whenever possible, we should strive to <br /> ensure that they have a secure and stable home in order to grow and develop <br /> into responsible and productive adults. This is most assured when thc child is <br /> in a home and has parents, either natural or adoptive, that they can always <br /> count on to be there when they need them during their developing years. <br /> Through close coordination with Child Welfare, local attorneys, and the <br /> courts, we plan to pursue legal custody, guardianship, or adoption in those <br /> child-only cases Where, in the opinion of child welfare staff, this would be the <br /> most beneficial plan for the child. The adoption assistance payments would <br /> benefit the family more than the WI:FA check. A County Commission <br /> member of our Work First Planning Committee has stated that he' will work <br /> with local attorneys to attempt to get each law office to volunteer their <br /> services for one adoption each year. It is anticipated that Family Services <br /> Division staff may be trained in home studies to complete that aspect of this <br /> process. In addition, we will closely work with the Child Support office to <br /> make sure that non-custodial parents are providing the necessary support for <br /> their children. We plan to support the schooling of children whenever <br /> possible through coordinating tutoring, working with a school to work <br /> program, as well as encouraging families to commit to Contributing <br /> themselves into an IDA to support post-secondary education or training for <br /> their children. <br />b. Who will carry these se .rviees out: A wide range of professionals will be <br /> utilized to carry these services out. They include DSS Child Welfare, Child <br /> Support, and Employment staff, attorneys, and possibly, private agencies. <br />e. Where will they take place: These activities will take place in the same <br /> areas where all other adoptions occur, in the DSS, attorneys' offices, the <br /> courts, and the homes of adoptive families. <br />d. Measurement of outcomes: The department will keep internal <br /> measurements of all cases where adoption is pursued and finalized. <br /> <br />Provision of Financial Counseling for Anyone Applying for Work First or <br />Emergency Assistance <br /> <br />13 <br /> <br /> <br />
