This Users' Manual is issued as an operational tool. It contains the following:
a) Regulations adopted by the Department of Social Services (DSS) for the governance of its agents, licensees, and/or beneficiaries;
b) Regulations adopted by other State Departments affecting DSS programs;
c) Statutes from appropriate Codes which govern DSS programs;
d) Court decisions; and
e) Operational standards by which DSS staff will evaluate performance within DSS programs.
Regulations of DSS are printed in gothic type as is this sentence.
Handbook material, which includes reprinted statutory material, other department's regulations and examples, is separated from the regulations by double lines and the phrases "HANDBOOK BEGINS HERE", "HANDBOOK CONTINUES", and "HANDBOOK ENDS HERE" in bold print. Please note that both other department's regulations and statutes are mandatory, not optional.
In addition, please note that as a result of the changes to a new computer system revised language in this manual letter and subsequent Food Stamp Manual Letters will now be identified by a vertical line in the left margin.
Questions relative to this Users' Manual should be directed to your usual program policy office.
