SUBJ: GAIN IMPLEMENTATION UPDATE
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
In March 1987 your board reviewed the GAIN County Plan and
approved it on March 24, 1987 . We submitted the plan to
SDSS on March 25 , 1987 . Since then, we have been
negotiating with the State Department of Social Services
(SDSS) .
This memo is to advise you of the current status of the
GAIN program in Contra Costa County:
1 . Per SDSS, the tentative allocation for FY 88/89 is
$4 . 1 million. SDSS is also assuming that there is
available to GAIN an ADDITIONAL $1 . 5 million in
community resources ( including resources from the
Adult School Districts, the Private Industry
Councils, the Community College Districts, and the
Refugee-funded service programs) .
2 . GAIN will be implemented effective May 1 , 1988,
county-wide. AFDC-FG mandatory registrants will
be phased into the program at their annual
redeterminations of eligibility. Mandatory and
voluntary. registrants in self-initiated training or
education programs will also be phased into GAIN
beginning May 1, 1988 .
3 . We are estimating that we will be serving 424
clients in FY 87/88 and 2 ,720 clients in FY 88/89 .
4 . Clients enrolled in GAIN will receive the full
complement of GAIN services .
My staff and I look forward to implementing GAIN, a
program that is an innovative and comprehensive approach
toward enabling AFDC recipients to become self-sufficient ..
