Available Transition Assistance Supportive Services consist of:

1. Job Retention – A monthly amount of $200.00 will be paid unless the caretaker has a participation code of ‘DD’, ‘DF’ or ‘DM’.

Note: When the Stepparent’s earned income results in eligibility for Transition Assistance, the Job Retention must be entered next to the natural or adoptive parent in the automated computer system.

2. Transportation – A transportation allowance of up to $150.00 per month may be paid. The amount of the transportation allowance will be determined by the JOBS Employment Contractor.

Note: Only caretakers participating in the JOBS Program are eligible to receive the transportation allowance.

 

Transition Assistance Supportive Services for job retention and transportation will be paid prospectively.

 

Effective with the Benefit Month of August 2011, child care expenses must be paid through the Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP), based on the rules of that program. (Refer to the Child Care Assistance Manual Chapter 400-26.). Child care expenses will no longer be paid directly to recipients using a debit card.
