Goal is to aid this youth with their successful completion of OCCTAC's WIA program. Procedures: Eligibility: Supportive services are available to those identified as approved WIA participants; have limited resources to meet basic needs; and have expressed the need of additional support to the Case Manager. Supportive services will be made available to participants while they are enrolled in all phases of the WIA program. These services are contingent upon approval by the Case Manager, Educational Counselor and OCCTAC Director. Provision of supportive service is not an entitlement. Availability of Funds and Assessment of Need: The fiscal advisor or the accounting clerk and the Executive Director will verify the availability of funds and notify the case manager. Supportive services are delivered contingent upon availability of funds, the need of the participant and given on a first come, first serve basis. Initial assessment on need will be determined by the case manager and will be reviewed regularly. Logs of services will be kept on a regular basis and service(s) will also be case noted for documentation purposes. Transportation Assistance Guidelines: After identifying the need to transportation assistance and eliminating other resources, the case manager and the participant will develop a service plan and update progress in the case notes. Transportation assistance is defined as the provision of a gas voucher or bus pass. No replacement bus pass or gas card will be issued in the event the participant loses his/her bus pass or gas card.
