REPORT OF SELECT COMMITTEE
STATE OF WASHINGTON
DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL AND HEALTH SERVICES
January 21, 1994
Marty Brown
Secretary of the Senate
306 Legislative Building
Olympia, Washington 98504
Dear Secretary Brown:
Engrossed Substitute House Bill No. 1197, Section 9, passed in the last session of the Legislature, directed the department to design a program for implementation and submit the program design to the appropriate committees of the Legislature. The legislation stated that the goal of the program was to segment the AFDC population, to identify and match services to each segment, and prioritize those services. We were able to accomplish this goal by involving client advocates, business interests, and community based organizations at central office, region, and community level.
We view this plan as part of an overall review of the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills Training (JOBS) Program. This plan is an evolving one: It is open to change based on what we learn as we review the current program. Regardless of how we might restructure JOBS to be more effective and efficient as a process, we continue to be committed to assisting families achieve self-sufficiency. We consider JOBS to be a critical element for many families as they work toward the goal of self-sufficiency.
We are submitting our program design for your review. The segments in the proposed design are based on the level of work experience and educational background of the individual AFDC recipient. The services are prioritized on a sequential basis, and are matched to the needs of the segment group.
We will be available to meet with you to discuss the program design at your convenience.
Sincerely,
JEAN SOLIZ, Secretary
The Report of the Select Committee is on file in the Office of the Secretary of the Senate.
