ISSUE DATE: 09/2020
Review circumstances when participants have been in sanction for at least 2 months.
Review the case file to determine if the employment plan is still appropriate:
This includes:
· Determining whether the participant has a good cause reason for not complying. See 19.9 (Good Cause).· Considering whether a pre-employment activity would help the participant address challenges that have prevented compliance. Participation in these activities could cure the sanction.
Case note the review of the employment plan and what was learned.
· Reach out to participants in sanction.Make sure the participant understands what must be done to come back into compliance.
· Schedule a meeting with sanctioned participants as soon as possible to discuss ways to cure the sanction.· Coordinate efforts with the eligibility worker and other appropriate county, tribal or community agency staff in planning a strategy to assist the family.· Record in case notes all contact with the participant and the outcome of team meetings dealing with the sanctioned participant.· Continue to try to make contact at least once a month, even if the participant does not respond.· Provide the client every opportunity to cure the sanction and offer the necessary support and assistance.· Revise the plan if it is not possible to comply with activities in the current plan or the Notice of Intent to Sanction (NOITS).
