28 Section 8 - ADMINISTRATION
DWS has the administrative and supervisory responsibility for the Family Employment Program. DWS also has the responsibility to administer most Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration services in the state of Utah. The Executive Director of the Department of Workforce Services is a member of the Governor's cabinet.
TANF is state administered and implementation is based within nine Economic Service Areas. Each service area has several employment centers that provide programs and services. A Division Director of DWS supervises each Service Area Director.
This plan reflects Utah's current statewide Family Employment Program and Employment and Education and Training Services. Improvements and options in the program will be an ongoing continuous improvement process that will include amendments to this plan.
