SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF GRANT DIVERSION PLAN UNDER THE COUNTY' S
GAIN PROGRAM (COUNTY 421-043-1)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECCAMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
I. Approve and authorize submission of the County' s Grant
Diversion Plan (County #21-043-1) as instructed by the State
Department of Social Services. The Grant Diversion Plan, a
separate component under Greater Avenues of Independence
(GAIN) , will provide certain employment and training services
for AFDC recipients for the period beginning November 1, 1987
and ending June 30, 1988 .
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None. The $719,850 in State funds budgeted for this
component was included in the County' s overall GAIN Plan
which was approved by the Board on March 24,1987.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
Grant Diversion is a funding mechanism by which all or a
portion of the AFDC participant' s cash grant may be diverted
to the employer as a wage subsidy.
The planned enrollment will allow for supportive services and
on-the-job training (OJT) , supported work, and/or transi-
tional work opportunities for 134 AFDC participants; the
program goal for these activities is permanent unsubsidized
employment.
These services will be contracted to service providers
including, but not limited to, subcontracts with OJT
employers. Both the GAIN Advisory Council and GAIN
Coordinating Committee have reviewed the Grant Diversion
Plan and have voiced no opposition to the Plan.
On August 4, 1987, a public hearing was held pursuant to GAIN
legislation (AB2580) , at which time the community was permit-
ted to direct any comments regarding the Plan to the County
Board of Supervisors.
