| Youth Receiving Intensive
Benefit Support
The
most common type of service delivered to the intensive benefit
support youth group was “Benefit Analysis and Advisement,”
which is the assessment of the potential impacts of employment
or the aspects of a recipient’s financial profile by a
benefits specialist in order to develop an outline of available
options and projected outcomes. This was followed by “Information
and Referral Services,” which provided general information
about the benefit program and referral to government programs
to more than 80 percent of the youth population.
