The Director also is responsible for monitoring
services to migrant and seasonal farmworkers,
and for development and delivery of services un-
der contracts with designated Prime Sponsors un-
der the Comprehensive Employment and Training
Act.
State and local office staff represent the Divi-

The Work Incentive Program (WIN), which
has been consolidated with the Employment Ser-
vice Division, assists persons receiving Aid to
Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) to
obtain employment. Unless otherwise exempt,
persons applying for or receiving AFDC benefits
must register with and participate in WIN.
Among those exempt from the registration re-
quirement are AFDC applicants and recipients
who are aged, infirm, a caretaker of incapacitated
family members, and a parent or caretaker rela-
tive of a child under age six. The Income Mainte-
nance unit of each local department of social ser-
vices refers all non-exempt AFDC applicants and
recipients to WIN. In addition, exempt applicants
and recipients can volunteer for WIN training
and job placement.
The WIN Program emphasizes immediate job
placement for a registrant whenever practicable.
WIN also sponsors on-the-job training, work ex-
perience programs, and other job search activities
for its registrants. Various social services that
contribute directly to immediate placement are
provided by the Separate Administrative Unit of
the Social Services Administration. Individual ini-
tiative on the part of registrants is expected and
the development of job-finding and job-retention
skills is stressed.
