participation in Welfare-to-Work activities . Subsequently, the
County' s Employment and Human Services Department and Health

substance abuse and mental health services to Welfare-to-Work
participants referred by the Employment and Human Services
Department .

services, including individual , group and family collateral
counseling, case management, and medication management services for
