Councilmember Jim Graham, Chairperson of the Committee on Human Services, announces a public oversight roundtable on the “Performance Outcomes of the Department of Human Services’ TANF Employment Program Providers”. The roundtable will be held on Monday, September 16, 2013, at 11:00 a.m., in Room 500 of the John A. Wilson Building.
The mission of the Department of Human Services’ (DHS) TANF Employment Program (TEP) is to assist TANF recipients in enhancing their education and skill levels in preparing for, finding, and retaining unsubsidized employment in order to ultimately earn family sustaining incomes and no longer require public assistance. TEP relies on contracted employment providers to provide work readiness, job placement, and retention services to TANF recipients who are not exempt from work requirements. The purpose of this roundtable is to give DHS the opportunity to present the outcomes of the TEP providers in key performance areas.
Those who wish to testify or have questions regarding the roundtable should contact Malcolm Cameron of the Committee on Human Services by e-mail at mcameron@dccouncil.us or by telephone at (202) 724-8191. E-mail contacts to Mr. Cameron should include the residential ward, full name, title, and affiliation -- if applicable -- of the person(s) testifying. Witnesses should bring 15 copies of their testimony to the roundtable. Representatives of organizations will be allowed a maximum of five (5) minutes for oral presentation and individuals will be allowed a maximum of three (3) minutes for oral presentation.
If you are unable to testify at the roundtable, written statements are encouraged and will be made a part of the official record. Copies of written statements should be submitted to the Committee on Human Services, 1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Suite 116, Washington, D.C. 20004, no later than 6:00 p.m., Monday, September 23, 2013, when the official record will close.
