Wisconsin initiatives connecting NCPs to employment resources Sample Clauses

Wisconsin initiatives connecting NCPs to employment resources. The Wisconsin Department of Children and Families (DCF) administers federal programs related to NCPs such as child support enforcement and the state’s Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, named “Wisconsin Works” (W-2). Most employment services are overseen by two bureaus within DCF’s Division of Family and Economic Security (DFES): the Bureau of Working Families (BWF) and the Bureau of Child Support (BCS), which supervises the state’s child support program. While these bodies oversee the employment programs, services themselves are provided by government contracted vendors that specialize in these services and operate in regions designated by the Bureau of Regional Operations. Vendors include Forward Services Corporation, Goodwill Industries, and Workforce Connections. BCS oversees several employment programs exclusively for NCPs: Children First and ELEVATE (Empowering Lives through Education, Vocational Assessment, Training, and Employment). ELEVATE builds on Supporting Parents Supporting Kids (SPSK), which was Wisconsin’s CSPED program. SPSK, which was implemented in two counties (Brown and Kenosha), has been extended to three other competitively selected counties (Marathon, Racine, Wood) with the establishment of ELEVATE in 2019. ELEVATE draws on both state funds and federal cost-sharing that exceeds two million dollars thanks to a federal (Section 1115) waiver that allows the use of child support funds for employment services. Like CSPED, ELEVATE makes enhanced child support services, employment services, parenting resources, and case management available to program participants. Participation in ELEVATE is voluntary. The implementation and evaluation of ELEVATE is currently ongoing. In contrast to ELEVATE, participation in Children First is mandated by court order. Children First launched in 1987, and has enrolled over a thousand NCPs per year (OCSE, 2021). Children First is currently offered in sixteen competitively selected counties (Wisconsin Department of Children and Families, 2022). The program requires NCPs to make on-time payments for twelve weeks or complete sixteen weeks of participation. Program activities include intensive case management, job search and retention services, skills training, and parenting improvement services to promote responsible parenting. Both ELEVATE and Children First work in close tandem with Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act funded Job Centers, local W-2 agencies, local government agencies ...
