In addition to regular employment plan (EP) reviews, FSET workers are expected to conduct ongoing assessments as needed with participants. For example, a worker may wish to reassess when a participant has a change in employment or educational attainment, needs to establish new goals and revise FSET activities, requires new FSET supportive services, or encounters new barriers to employment. Ongoing assessment is an important part of FSET case management that ensures that the FSET program is effectively addressing participant employment goals, supportive service needs, and barriers to employment. How does the SNAP State agency ensure the case management services offered do not act as an impediment to successful participation in E&T? Case management plays a vial role in Wisconsin's employment and training program. Participants are assigned a case manager when they first enroll in the FSET program. The primary goal of case managers is to guide FSET participants through successful engagement in E&T, support them in building upon their strengths, needs, and preferences, and assist in overcoming barriers to help achieve their employment goals. Annual program monitoring includes an evaluation of case management processes and a detailed review of case information entered into CWW by case managers. 1/29/26, 10:30 AM State Plan WI FY26 - Amendment 1 https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-wify26stateplan//index.html 40/230
