Question / Response(s)
A representative from Hawaii would like to know if there any other State TANF programs that offer services or have partnerships that assist/support Runaway Youth or Unaccompanied Youth. If yes, what are the allowable ways to fund these efforts and how have the States met TANF requirements and what types of services are they providing these youth?

Question / Response(s)

A representative from Hawaii has two operational/logistical questions regarding TANF/WIOA:

1. How are other States addressing the requirement for an MOU with the one-stop delivery system that includes an agreement on funding costs of the services and the operating costs of the system(§678.500 (b)(2)? For HI, any agreement that includes a financial commitment requires a contract, and not an MOU.

2. How are other States addressing the placement of staff who are part of a collective bargaining unit in one-stop locations that are not operated by the State government, in particular those run by nonprofits? What are the issues, and how have they been addressed?
