1.2.4 Coordinating with Partner Agencies

W-2 Wisconsin Works applicants and participants are often connected to other services within their community.

The W-2 agency is responsible for ensuring integration of services across programs and providers to reduce duplication of effort and improve employment opportunities and outcome for each participant and W-2 group.

To do this, the W-2 agency must establish and maintain effective relationships with the following partner agencies:

Public Workforce System;

Wisconsin Job Centers;

Public and Community Based Supportive Services;

Child Welfare; and

Income Maintenance (IM).
