ODJFS is issuing new rule 5101:9-6-08.9 "TANF Subsidized Employment Allocation" to issue funding for the enhancement of subsidized employment programs for TANF-eligible individuals. This funding will be allocated only to counties who expressed interest in writing by the October 28, 2009 deadline established and communicated to counties in the Office of Families and Children, Family Stability Letter # 91.

CDJFS staff will use existing random moment sample (RMS) codes for subsidized employment programs while performing work related to this project. Participating CDJFS will charge expenditures to this allocation via post-allocated adjustments. Expenditures from this allocation will enable Ohio to qualify for additional dollars in the TANF Emergency Funds under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Funding details are outlined in the rule.
