NON-EDUCATION, NON-WORK COMPONENT: JOB RETENTION Description of the component. Provide a summary of the activities and services. For individuals who received SNAP in the month of or the month before beginning new employment, JR services will be made available. JR services will include case management, job coaching, and participant reimbursements. Job coaching refers to skill development geared to keeping a job once obtained rather than finding a new job. This might include proper call-out procedures, how to self-advocate in different environments, or managing the tension between personal and work life. JR services will be available for a minimum of 30 days to a maximum of 90 days. After 90 days of participation, participants must be disenrolled from the JR component. Once enrolled, individuals can continue to receive JR services even if their SNAP benefits have closed. Participants will have the option to end participation in JR at any time before the 90th day at their request. Successful completion of JR is defined as an individual maintaining employment with the same employer through the end of the JR period. Indicate the Target Population this component will serve.
