<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal">Hello All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have no new information to share on the counties getting waivers yet, just saying that up front.
<span style="font-family:"Segoe UI Emoji",sans-serif">😊</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It looks like we are getting close to final negotiations with DSHS for the ABAWD contract. There have been a couple of things on the tracking sheet that we have been changing and I wanted to make sure we are all clear so that we are getting
the best data possible for all concerned.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There will be one final change to the tracking sheet for January and then there will not be any changes unless something major happens. This one change will be a place in the Activity referral section for an ABAWD who chooses not to get
referred to any of the activities. You will need to indicate in the notes the reason they were not referred to any activities. This is info we are obligated to report to DSHS. We will get the sheet with this change out to you as soon as possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There has also been some confusion on the tracking people other than ABAWDS, there are two categories of these people, a) people you help apply to SNAP and b) people you help who are not needing SNAP help.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="a">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3">We need first and last name for people you help with SNAP. Report these on the sheet with their names and fill in resource referrals and anything else you know except identifying
info besides names.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3">The people that fit this category should be list as student 1, student 2, or community 1, community 2, etc… fill in as much of the row as possible except an identifying information.
<o:p></o:p></li></ol>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you met with any people in the past you can add them to the sheet for January. We are looking for totals not necessarily the month the person met with you so it is okay to add them at this point. If you have any questions let me know.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As we all gear up for the holidays, I want you to be aware of our office closures and staff leave times that will effect response time. Below is a list of SBCTC staff that you may normally intersect with.<o:p></o:p></p>
