To request and receive support services, a participant must be actively <br />enrolled in one (1) or more of the fourteen (14) required program <br />elements, including during follow-up services. <br />2. Supportive services will be approved upon verification of enrollment and <br />participation in required program elements, when it is necessary for youth <br />to participate in required program elements, and when the youth is unable <br />to obtain supportive services though any other program or agency. <br />3. Provision of support services is not an entitlement and it will be <br />determined what supportive services are reasonably required for youth <br />based on individual need, assessment results, and the Individual Service <br />Plan (ISP). <br />AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS AND ASSESSMENT OF NEED: <br />1. All Support Services not offered through OCCC are processed on a <br />reimbursement basis. <br />2. Support services are delivered contingent upon availability of funds. <br />3. Initial assessment of need will be determined by the Program Specialist. <br />The need for services will be recorded on the Individual Service Plan (ISP) <br />and through on -going assessment. <br />4. Program Specialist is responsible for determining if transportation is a <br />significant barrier to participation in required program elements, and <br />whether or not the youth were unable to obtain services through another <br />program or agency. <br />5. Supportive services may be provided while a participant is enrolled in one <br />or more of the 14 elements, including when a participant has exited the <br />program and is eligible for follow up services. Supportive services must be <br />determined based upon the individual and must include a <br />review/assessment of the participant's need for supportive services to <br />meet goals and clearly documented in the case file. Supportive service <br />obligations and expenditures are to be tracked separately and are subject <br />to the additional policies below. <br />
