c. Describe the State’s Strategy for Providing Reemployment Assistance to Unemployment Insurance Claimants and Other Unemployed Individuals.
Current Narrative:
Wagner-Peyser staff reach out to UI claimants occurs early and often in their claim, either electronically, by phone, and/or by mail to apprise of one-stop center services and encourage visiting their nearest center for reemployment assistance. Claimants profiled and selected for RESEA are mandated to come to a center for mandatory reemployment services to include: (1) orientation to all services, including self-service; (2) provision of labor market and career information; and, (3) development of an Individual Reemployment Plan that includes work search activities such as assessments, counseling, training, resume preparation, and job search. UI claimants not selected for RESEA receive many of the same reemployment services through the Wagner-Peyser grant and the state funded Claimant Assistance Program. Other unemployed individuals have available many of these same reemployment services as determined appropriate with their needs by interview and assessment with Wagner-Peyser staff.
