Pre-recorded webinar series: Two part webinar sessions provide program management strategies and funding alternatives for effective and responsive employment service provision. Employment support services funding are generally thought to be available only through three traditional funding mechanisms for supported employment (State VR, Schools and Medicaid) however there are other opportunities for employment support funding through SSA’s Ticket to Work program as well as by accessing state workforce funding for targeted groups (youth, economically disadvantaged, etc.)  and foci (training and credentialing in high-demand business sectors). Session participants will also learn methods to develop cost recovery spreadsheets that detail the number of placements and clients needed in order to fully fund program costs and positions.

Upon completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:

• Develop an agency budget that considers myriad funding streams
• Describe the other funding agencies other than state VR
• Effectively plan staff production standards across services
• Determine responsive caselodes and duties
