7.5.3 Case Management for Pregnant Women (CMP)

The Case Management for Pregnant Women (CMP) placement is for pregnant women who do not have custody of any children. CMP allows participants to receive case management services during pregnancy, even if they are not a custodial parent.

To be eligible for a CMP Case Management Pregnant Women placement, the individual must:

Have a medically verified pregnancy; and

Meet all the financial and nonfinancial eligibility criteria (see Chapters 2 and 3 ), with the exception of being a custodial parent of a dependent child.

The W-2 agency may provide the following services to individuals in a CMP placement:

Employment Search (ES);

Child Care Related Activities (CC); and

Other Case Management activities (See the Activity Codes Appendix for a full list).

Once the child is born, the participant may be eligible for the CMC Custodial Parent of an Infant placement.

If the participant has a medically verified at-risk pregnancy and also meets the ARP At Risk Pregnancy eligibility criteria, they may be eligible for case management services through a paid ARP placement. (See 7.4.4.1 )

EXAMPLE: Shawna is five months pregnant and does not have custody of any children. Shawna meets all W-2 Wisconsin Works financial and nonfinancial eligibility requirements with the exception of being a custodial parent of a dependent child and has a medically verified pregnancy. Shawna meets all of the eligibility requirements for a CMP placement.
