NON-EDUCATION, NON-WORK COMPONENT: WORKFARE Description of the component. Provide a summary of the activities and services. Workfare allows individuals to gain work experience and useful workplace skills at a supervised work site. In lieu of wages, workfare participants receive compensation in the form of their household's monthly SNAP allotment. The hours of participation are calculated by the amount of the monthly SNAP allotment divided by the minimum wage. Workfare may be combined with supervised job search, job search training, or other components. Workfare is available to ABAWD participants only. If a participant has not obtained employment after completing Supervised Job Search, the participant is offered a workfare slot at a local public or private non- profit agency, such as a government facility or a charitable organization.
