When does screening for referral to E&T occur? Select all that apply. Initial Certification Recertification Reported change in the work registrant status of households Other Describe the process for screening for direct referral to E&T, including the staff involved. During the interviewing process at certification or recertification, eligibility workers screen applicants for work registration, ABAWD and participation in FAET. Eligibility workers use an interview script that has screening questions for potential exemptions from FAET. These questions help to determine, not only if the client meets a work registration or ABAWD exemption therefore not mandating they participate in FAET, but also to aid in the determination if a client is work ready. These work ready questions are to address any potential barriers for the client to find and be able to maintain employment, limited formal education, or other barriers that many interfere with successful participation in the FAET. As Kansas has many rural areas, applicants may not have access to transportation or access to internet services and therefore would not be considered for participation in FAET. Kansas does not currently have a wait list for FAET. When does the screening for a reverse referral request occur? Upon receipt of a referral to FAET from an E&T provider, the career navigator reviews the case file to determine if the client is already receiving FAET services or if a referral task has been created for the client. If neither of these is true, the E&T provider is notified that the client is not mandatory for E&T. This occurs within 48 hours of receiving a reverse referral. Describe the process for screening during the reverse referral request process, including the staff involved. If the client is mandatory for E&T, the career navigator sends an email to the non-compliance coordinator for rescreening. If the client is not currently participating with FAET, once screening is completed, the client completes the assessment process. If the client is currently participating with FAET, the career navigator schedules a meeting with the client to ensure the provider and component are a good fit. If the client is not receiving SNAP benefits, the client is referred to the DCF website to complete the screening to determine potential eligibility and to complete a SNAP application.
