Current Narrative:
DWD has implemented a new case management system that allows for integration and interfacing with data systems from other agencies and partners.
DWD also is collaborating with DFR on employment and training services for SNAP and TANF clients. Through the collaboration partners have begun discussing the coordination of approaches and the alignment of data systems. As future business processes begin to take shape, the complementary discussions to develop plans for full interoperability between the technology systems will be initiated. Several Regions have purchased a shared scheduling system that allows all partners to schedule clients with other partner programs.
