Background: In May 1997, the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) Regional Administrators were asked to request their State agencies to nominate up to three successful service delivery area (SDA) programs serving welfare-to-work recipients. In making their selections, States were asked to use the following five elements, the first four of which were used by the General Accounting Office to identify successful employment and training programs: -- ensuring participants are committed to training and getting a job; -- removing barriers that could limit a participant's ability to finish training and get a job; -- improving participants' employability skills; -- linking occupational skills training with the local labor market; and -- collaboration and partnership with other agencies. Before being included in the casebook, the nominated projects underwent a series of screens. First, the Regional Offices reviewed the nominations to ensure they met the five key features. Second, National Office and contractor staff, Westat, Inc., reviewed the projects for consistency. Third, the contractor interviewed project directors to collect information which would be fully descriptive of a case study that would be of value to the reader. Fourth, the contractor and National Office staff reviewed the draft write-ups to limit the final set of projects to those which had either proven performance and/or provided the reader with diversity in approaches. A total of 21 projects were selected for inclusion in the casebook. We wish to thank all the States and individual employment and training entities for submitting nominations. While more nominations were received beyond the 21 contained in the casebook, those included should provide important insights for interested parties. The Casebook demonstrates that the workforce development system is meeting the challenges of working with this important cohort to address the human resource needs of our Nation. Contents: The Casebook contains a brief overview which summarizes the individual cases. This overview touches upon program durations and philosophy, demographic characteristics of participants, funding patterns, key features, innovative practices and lessons learned which includes a summary of what the individual project staff felt were important points for others' consideration. Also included is a program matrix that provides the reader with a quick point of reference to those projects which are of most interest. The remainder of the Casebook contains the individual case studies. Each of the case studies consists of a program highlights box with summary data, background, an overview of the organizational responsibility, recruitment and selection, services provided, outcomes, innovative features, lessons learned and a contact for additional information. Availability: Copies of the casebook are being supplied directly to each State and SDA. In addition, the Casebook is available on ETA's internet web page at http://wtw.doleta.gov. Interested parties can scan the Casebook and download desired information. A small supply of the printed Casebook will be available for individual requests by contacting the Office of Employment and Training Programs at 202-219-5580. Action Required: Please share with appropriate program officials.

Background: A provision to a final UCX rule published in the Federal Register on October 17, 1988, required the SESAs to send, effective November 16, 1988, notices of claims filed and subsequent monetary and nonmonetary determinations to the branches of the military and to individuals separated from the Commissioned Corps of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the Coast Guard. SESAs were provided with a list of military addresses via UIPL No. 19-94, Change 7. Subsequently, the U.S. Army has provided a new address for such notices. Action Required: State Administrators should provide the attached list of military addresses to appropriate staff and advise them to immediately discontinue using the list of military liaison addresses provided in UIPL No. 19-94, Change 7.

References: Section 3306(t) of the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA); North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act (NAFTA), P.L. No. 103-182; Unemployment Insurance Program Letter (UIPL) No. 14-94. Background: The NAFTA, P.L. No. 103-182, among other things, amended Federal law to give States the option of permitting certain individuals to receive a SEA payment from the State's unemployment fund for the purpose of assisting such individuals in establishing businesses and becoming self-employed. These SEA payments are authorized only during the 5 years following NAFTA's date of enactment. Since NAFTA was enacted on December 8, 1993, the SEA program provisions were effective on that date and expire on December 8, 1998. See UIPL 14-94, pages 1 and 14. Since at this time there is no legislation pending before Congress that authorizes States to continue operating a SEA program beyond December 8, 1998, we are issuing this UIPL to remind States that their SEA programs must be terminated. Phase-out: 0SEA allowances are payable only for the period for which Federal authorization permits the program to operate, which is prior to December 8, 1998. SEA payments may be issued on and after December 8, 1998, but only with respect to periods of time prior to December 8, 1998. States may phase out the SEA program by establishing a cut-off date prior to December 8, 1998, for enrolling new SEA participants. This would allow the time needed for SEA participants to receive all SEA allowances and participate in all activities and prevent the possibility of some participants not receiving all SEA allowances. Enrolling claimants into a program that will expire before the participants will have the opportunity to receive all allowances or engage in all required activities would likely result in unfavorable reactions from the participants and unwanted publicity. Alternatively, States could provide claimants with the options of either receiving their maximum benefit amount (MBA) under the regular UI program, or participating in the SEA program with the understanding that their MBA will not be payable as SEA allowances. Action: We encourage States to take appropriate action to assure the smooth phase-out of the SEA program. State Administrators are requested to provide this information to appropriate staff.
