ECONOMIC SUPPORT PAC

The Economic Support Policy Advisory Committee meets the third Thursday of each month at the Dane County Job Center to provide feedback and guidance to both the Department of Health Services and to the Department of Children and Families concerning topics related to the daily administration and service provisions of Economic Support Programs, including Foodshare, Medicaid, and Child Care programs. With numerous Federal and State changes occurring in Economic Support programs each and every month, the ESPAC provides feedback on recommendation for changes to information technology and computer systems, to implementation strategies for new policies and procedures, to financial allocations and ways to create efficiencies in our workloads, and on strengthening vital communications to Economic Support recipients, advocacy agencies and county staff members.
