The purpose of this procedure letter is to inform county department of job and family services (CDJFS) that the Title XX County Profile process has changed, including the due date of the profile. The county profile will now be entered into the SSBG Federal Reporting Website. Agencies no longer need to submit signed copies of their county profile to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS), but must continue to maintain the signed original on file at the CDJFS. CDJFS staff who already have access to the portal will keep the same username and password.  CDJFS staff who need access to this portal must contact CFIS_HELP_DESK@jfs.ohio.gov.  

The Title XX County Profile is now due by June 15th of each year.

The public notice and hearing process for the Title XX program has not changed.  Agencies should begin preparing for the public notice in March and hold the public hearing in April. Both the public notice and a summary of the comments made at the hearing are to be submitted by the end of May to the mailbox: OFC_SSBG_Title_XX_County_Profile_Reports@jfs.ohio.gov.

These changes will result in amendments to the following rules and forms:

• 5101:2-25-02 Title XX Administration
• 5101:2-25-03 Title XX County Profile
• 5101:2-25-07 Title XX Reimbursement Dependent upon correct determination of recipient eligibility
• JFS 01821 “Title XX County Profile.”  This form will be obsoleted.
