SCSEP Policy and Procedure Manual updates
Updates t Removed references to SSAI’s former waiver process to the four year individual durational limit (IDL) t Removed references to webtools that SSAI no longer has now that our subgrantee network enters SCSEP data directly into SPARQ
Updates (cont’d) t Added references to SPARQ t Clarified we have a SA 1 and SA 2 webtool now for submitting federal and non-federal share cost reports (§ 1003)
Clarifications t Clarified our staffing requirement for SCSEP - § 101 -A t SSAI requires each sponsor to have a project director who has overall project management for its SCSEP operations and who serves as the primary point of contact with SSAI. In addition to achieving the performance and spending goals specified in their contract, SSAI requires that any sponsor provide a part-time project director for every 30 modified authorized positions and a fulltime project director for every 60 modified authorized positions.
§ 101 -A (cont’d) t If the project is required to serve more than 60 authorized positions, staff patterns should evolve in conjunction with increases in modified authorized positions minimally for every increment of 30 modified authorized positions above 60. For example, if a sponsor has 90 modified authorized positions, a strong staffing pattern would be a fulltime project director and a part-time project assistant; or if a sponsor has 120 modified authorized positions, the sponsor would have either a full-time project director and a full-time assistant or a full-time project director and two part-time assistants. Use of participant staff should be considered in addition to or as
§ 101 -A t The project must request authorization from SSAI in writing for staffing that is less than outlined above. In reviewing a waiver request, SSAI will consider the following factors including but not limited to whether or not the project is achieving its performance goals, is on a CIP, has strong annual programmatic and fiscal reviews, is timely in submitting required reports, and has a credible staffing plan.
Policy Revisions t Changed the following policies veterans priority and income eligibility policies to reflect the change in the law about same-sex marriages t DOL TEGL #26 -13
Available on SSAI’s Partners’ Page
Veterans t § 201 -A Priority must be given to veterans t Following the ruling of the U. S. Supreme Court that the Defense Against Marriage Act (DOMA) was unconstitutional it is now the policy of DOL and SSAI both (a) to recognize all marriages (including same-sex marriages) that are lawfully entered in the state of celebration and (b) to recognize samesex marriage even if the marriage is not recognized in the state where the married individual resides as long as the marriage could have been entered into in a state. t In addition, per DOL, SSAI requires its sponsors to recognize the same-sex spouse of a veteran as a qualified spouse of a veteran if the individual fits the definition of a qualified spouse above.
Computing Income Eligibility t § 204 -B Definition of Family t Following the ruling of the U. S. Supreme Court that the Defense Against Marriage Act (DOMA) was unconstitutional it is now the policy of DOL and SSAI both (a) to recognize all marriages (including samesex marriages) that are lawfully entered in the state of celebration and (b) to recognize same-sex marriage even if the marriage is not recognized in the state where the married individual resides as long as the marriage could have been entered into in a state. t In addition, per DOL, SSAI requires its sponsors to recognize same-sex spouses within the definition of

Providing Service to the Most-in-Need (MIN)
Most in Need Definition t Participants whose economic and social conditions — as well as employment histories or prospects for employment — are poor t Integral to carrying out the SCSEP missions t Also known as MIN
Most in Need MIN Characteristics t Represent a participant’s barriers to employment. t There are 13, some of which cannot be changed once the participant is enrolled.
Most in Need: 13 Characteristics Participants with any of the following characteristics will be positive for MIN: t Veteran or Spouse t Have a Disability t Live in a Rural Area t Low Employment Prospects t Failed to Find Work through the One-Stop delivery system t Homeless or At-risk of becoming homeless
Most in Need: 13 Characteristics (cont’d) t Limited English proficiency t Low literacy skills t Severe disability t Frail t Age 75 or older t Old enough for SSI but not eligible t Have severely limited employment prospects in an area of persistent unemployment.
Most in Need The Formula MIN is not a percentage, but an average. To calculate— 1. Add all Most in Need characteristics possessed by all participants. 2. Divide total characteristics by number of total served participants. Performance goal results calculated as of June 30 th
Most in Need What is a qualifying enrollment for the MIN calculation? 1. The enrollment must have been served during the program year. 2. The assignment date of the first assignment for the enrollment must be on or after 7/1/2007.
Most in Need An Example of the Formula t You have counted the MIN characteristics for each of your participants for a total of 152. t You have served 68 participants total. t You divide 152 by 68 to arrive at 2. 23. t Your MIN performance measure is 2. 2.
Did You Know? MIN Characteristics that can be added after enrollment must be updated annually in SPARQ PPM § 201 -C
So, What is your Plan? You can capture at Recertification, But…what about those you served during the program year, who exited before March?
When to Record Updateable MINs? t At or near the start of the Program Year** t At the time of enrollment – make sure to capture those additional MIN characteristics t When doing re-assessments/IEP Updates t Recertification Definitely before
How to Record Updateable MINs SSAI Partners’ Page t MIN Re-Validation Form t Attestation Forms
Entering Updateable MINs in SPARQ The updateable MIN factors can be recorded in two ways in SPARQ. t Individually on the Recertification/Waiver of Durational Limit tab on a participant’s enrollment record. t By batch entry in the Waiver Factor area in SPARQ.
Entering Updateable MINs in SPARQ Individual entry of updateable MINs on a participant’s enrollment record
Batch entry of updateable MINs Navigate to Waiver Factors area of SPARQ

Keep in Mind t Your MIN credit will fluctuate when you bring on new enrollees t Diverse streams of recruitment sources remains important t The ability to improve your MIN score can not occur when you are unable to enroll new participants
Recruiting t Know Your Local Population t Direct Outreach to Organizations t Facilitate Intermediary Recruitment
MIN Continuous Improvement Plans We want to see: t In what ways you will target MIN participants in recruitment efforts t There are methodologies in place, such as pre-screening forms to determine participant MIN potential during inquiries t That you are prioritizing waiting list/new enrollments according to MIN
MIN Continuous Improvement Plans (cont’d) We want to see: t A system to check participant files and SPARQ regular to ensure all MIN characteristics are documented and entered t A standard process implemented to update MIN characteristics annually MIN CIP Updates are due Quarterly in PY 14
