Reemployment Assistance Program: Case Study

The work and services provided by the State of Florida include services for children and families, such as services concerning adoption, child abuse, children with disabilities, food stamps, and marriage/divorce. They also provide services involving colleges and universities, courts and corrections, environmental and wildlife preservation/protection, healthcare administration, highway patrol and safety, utility regulations, transportation, revenue (taxes), and a host of other areas. In order to pay for all of the services which they provide, Governor Rick Scott has created a budget of $78.4 billion for the state of Florida in the 2015-2016 fiscal year (Scott, 2016, p. 13). This budget also includes the employment of 113,687 people who compromise the total state workforce (Scott, 2016, p. 14).

Aside from being a free state Florida has a lot of job opportunities for people who need a job. Either part time job or full time. Also, the prices in Florida are lower than other states because there is no state taxes. Florida is one of the seven states that impose no income tax and it’s the most suitable state for retirees. Another thing is that Florida has a lot of attractions that people can go and visit. For example, there’s Walt Disney world, universal, and more. It also has a lot of beaches. Like, cocoa beach and clear water.

Over the past five years, the federal government has also found it difficult to measure “improvement” in states. Currently, success is based in terms of job entry rate or increases over time in job entry rate, retention rate, and earnings gain. States may use quarterly unemployment insurance wage records, surveys, administrative records, or a combination of those data sources. States are given wide latitude in the sources of information they report. Also, to further distort the findings, there is no baseline data with which to make comparisons (Danziger, 2000).

In order for a person to be eligible for the U.S. welfare aid, program managers must determine a number of

There have been a few proposed changes to Medicaid Expansion in Florida and other states. These proposed changes have included 1915 and 1115 waivers, including long-term care programs. Florida has an uninsured rate of 20 percent (Rose, 2015). This represents a great need for insurance coverage expansion and cost savings in Florida. Previous proposed changes have been successful in some aspects, but do not answer all of these elements.

The government of the people and for the people is only as good as the people voting and people running for those votes. As a nation, elections throughout its history have had controversy tied to them. The SunShine state is an important state for the national elections and for generating issues for the people as a whole. Being a swing state means Florida issues have power nationally, but it also means that the local elections may generate interest from the national government. Winning candidates from the 2016 election show this most notably.

One of the most urgent problems facing the State of Florida is the millions of people residing in the state who live below the poverty level. With many more residents facing food insecurity and a housing crisis, it is clear that something must be done to address these social ills. Out of numerous possible solutions to alleviate the poverty and inequality plaguing the state, only one has the potential to do so without increasing the burden already placed on taxpayers. With that in mind, I will be creating a policy brief which advocates for an increase to minimum wage. This brief will show that raising the minimum wage to $10.00 per hour has the potential to reduce the number of individuals on welfare (and thus reduce tax burdens) and to ease

While another review of families who left welfare and are working, tend to earn minimum wage eight dollars and twenty-five cents per hour. Many families left welfare not due to obtaining employment, but because they either fail to comply, or reached their sixty month time limit and was terminated from the program. While others experienced barriers such as: housing, child-care, domestic violence, learning disabilities and mental and physical illness. One of the future challenges will be to address the barriers facing TANF families, in order to prepare them for success in the workplace. The research published in the past used two design models. They both lack recent data specific to Illinois and various variables make it hard to formulate a clear outcome on the impact of Work First programs on Illinois TANF

Over the last four years the labor force has been continuously growing and because of this, employment has been growing as well. The county has the second lowest unemployment rate in Florida at about 3.5%

As Miami Dade Census were in the range of 23,750 and 27151. The unemployment in the town of Miami Lakes was a rate of 7%. As to other places in the south Florida area which was a 13.1% rate of unemployment in the same period as the 7% for the town of Miami Lakes. As a result the town of Miami Lakes had a greater employment rate and that because of all the business Miami Lake has to

Gainesville was an agricultural hub in the past,[1] but this has largely fallen by the wayside today. Unemployment in Gainesville is a bit high at 5.7% but has not significantly increased or decreased for several months.[2] This means that the economy is largely settled, which is

Additional strict guidelines will require a background check in order to ensure that the individual has no outstanding warrants. Like welfare, it is important that we supervise that government funds are going towards individuals who are really in need of assistance while remaining productive in order to not longer require governmental assistance. Another strict guideline would be that individuals requesting for a Universal Basic Income must be registered voters in an effort to help boost voter turnout. Individuals requesting for a Universal Basic Income will also need to show proof of unemployment that will lead to a drastic search or adaptation. For example, skilled workers with a specific skill set will have a more difficult time looking for jobs.

In North Carolina, in order to receive unemployment benefits you must first pass eligibility requirements. There are three eligibility requirements for applicants wanting to receive benefits. First, your past earnings much meet certain minimum thresholds. Second, you must be unemployed through no fault of your own, as defined by North Carolina Law. Third, you must be able and available to work, and you must be actively seeking a job. Eligible reasons for unemployment include layoffs, firing, or quitting within good cause.
