PROGRAM CHANGES Summarize changes for the upcoming Federal fiscal year (FY) from the prior FY. Significant changes may include new initiatives, changes in funding or funding sources, policy changes, or significant changes to the number of partners or participants. Significant changes could include those made as a result of management evaluation findings or participation in program improvement initiatives, such as SNAP to Skills. It is not necessary to include changes made as a result of new Federal rulemaking. Michigan is adding six new Third-Party Providers, through GST Michigan Works!, Oakland County Michigan Works!, Upper Peninsula (UP) Michigan Works!, and Southeast Michigan Community Alliance. Michigan also added two additional Michigan Works! Agencies as FAE&T Plus MWAs: Oakland County Michigan Works! and UP Michigan Works! for FY 2026. Michigan will be working with Northeast Michigan Works!, Region 7B and Southwest Michigan Works! during FY 2026 to become an FAE&T Plus MWA for FY 2027. Michigan has lost the ABAWD waiver for three counties and will be serving ABAWDS subject to TLFA in Oakland County (excluding the cities of Pontiac and Oak Park), Kent County (excluding the city of Grand Rapids), and Washtenaw County. Highlight any changes from above that the State agency is making to the E&T program based on the prior year’s performance, for instance changes made as a result of E&T outcome and participation data.
