97-19: Coding for Work Experience Program (WEP) Worker's Organizing Committee, Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), Fair Hearing Requests (06/05/97)
|
Currently, there is a project underway to code and enter approximately 995 requests for fair hearings submitted by the WEP Workers Organizing Committee of an organization known as ACORN. Fair hearings have been requested to challenge Work Experience Program (WEP) assignments due to the contentions that (1) the assignment is not designed to move clients to self-sufficiency and economic independence; and (2) the choice of the WEP assignment is not consistent with the client's employment plan in that it is not designed to improve employability.
These hearings will be grouped on separate calendars. Cases will be given the subcategories SP03, for NBEG cases, and OES2, for NOES cases. Previously, these subcategories were used for different issues (SP03 was used for failure to recertify; OES2 was used for employment issues).
It is important that the subcategories SP03 and OES2 are used only for issues specified in the ACORN requests, rather than for their previous usage, to ensure the proper coding and potential retrieval of these cases.
If the Income Support Center (ISC) is not provided on the original request, only the agency NBEG or NOES will be entered in the agency field.
The representative for all of these fair hearings is:
Ms. Milagros Silva
ACORN
845 Flatbush Avenue
Brooklyn, New York 11226
Each fair hearing request will have the following information entered into the Comment Information Screen:
"Contests assignment to WEP activity in that it is not designed to move app to self-sufficiency & economic independence; and the choice of the WEP assignment is not consistent with app's employability plan in that it is not designed to improve employability."
Communications Intake Unit staff please note: Do not combine other issues on these requests as calendars will be designed to hear the WEP issue only.
