Once each goal is reached or when the participant has changed his goal, a new DFA-SSP-1a is completed and the DFA-SSP-1 is updated if needed. 1.5.22.E WV WORKS Coaching Conversation Guide The Self-Sufficiency Appraisal Addendum and Coaching Guide, DFA-WVW-CCG-2 is used to review and revise goals identified on the Bridge to Stronger Families, the WV WORKS Goal Action Plan, or the Self-Sufficiency Plan.
