Current Narrative:

The following strategies will support the alignment of the core and required one-stop partner programs:

  • STRATEGY 1.1: Develop a common understanding among partners as to what the “one stop delivery system” is in Indiana.
  • STRATEGY 1.2: Increase service integration among partner agencies within the one stop delivery system, including partners serving youth and individuals with barriers to employment.
  • STRATEGY 1.3: Simplify the process for customers, specifically for adults with barrier to employments and for youth, in order for services to be accessible when, where and how they are needed.
  • STRATEGY 1.4: Ensure the culture of the One Stop system promotes knowledge transfer across partner programs, such that staff embraces the “no wrong door” philosophy when serving adults with barriers to employment and youth, and is capable of providing information on services across programs and making appropriate referrals
