The purpose of this Local Commissioners Memorandum (LCM) is to advise social services districts (districts) that $5,628,198 in federal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds is being made available to support subsidized jobs with public or private organizations established through the second year of the OTDA Transitional Jobs program (Transitional Jobs 2). Separate LCMs will be released to inform eligible districts of the funding available to support the continuation of the Green Jobs Corps and Health Care Jobs programs. The attached Subsidized Employment Programs Matrix provides a summary of each program model (see Attachment A).
District allocations for the Transitional Jobs 2 program are included in Attachment B. The Transitional Jobs 2 program will permit districts to establish subsidized jobs lasting up to 12 months combined with at least 105 hours of paid education and training for each participant, as described in this LCM.
