Policy must include <br />spending limits. <br /> <br />Supportive services are critical to the success of our participants. This target group enters our <br />program with multiple barriers that must be addressed before a successful outcome can be <br />achieved. Our program model will dedicate a significant amount of resources in the <br />Supportive Services line item of our budget. Although all non- WIA resources will be <br />explored and utilized prior to the use of WI A funds, we acknowledge that chi1dcare, housing <br />and counseling services are needed and can be difficult to attain through other means. <br /> <br />Please see the Supportive Services Policy included in this proposal. <br />
