The major provisions of the bill included: Most recipients are limited to 48 months of TANF assistance. All adult TANF recipients and all eligible parents are mandated to participate in approved work activities. All adult TANF recipients were required to sign a personal responsibility plan that emphasized the fact that they must take personal responsibility to better their lives. Some of the required actions included: - ensuring that minor children attend school - attending school conferences - attending family planning counseling - participating in substance abuse treatment, if needed - having children immunized - obtaining prenatal care. Teen parents are required to continue to live with a parent or responsible relative, and must remain in school to obtain their GED or high school diploma. Family cap measures were strengthened, so that TANF cash assistance was not increased for recipients who had another child after receiving TANF for ten months. Families who did not meet work or personal responsibility requirements could be sanctioned, with a reduction or termination of benefits for three (3) months or 12 months, depending on the number of infractions. The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act In August 1996, the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) was enacted. PRWORA eliminated the Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) cash entitlement program, and replaced it with the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) block grant. PRWORA effectively ended welfare entitlement, replacing the AFDC program with the time-limited benefits of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). The purposes of this legislation were to: Provide assistance to needy families so that children could be cared for in their own homes; Reduce welfare dependency by promoting job preparation, work and marriage; Prevent teen pregnancies; and Encourage the formation and maintenance of two-parent families. PRWORA established mandatory work and job training participation rates for recipients and enacted time limits for the receipt of TANF benefits. Moreover, PRWORA afforded states greater flexibility in the design and implementation of the TANF program and provided each state a block grant to fund its TANF program. State Maintenance of Effort (MOE) spending levels were mandated so that states would maintain levels of spending consistent with previous spending for AFDC. In the fall of 1996, Georgia submitted a state plan for administering the TANF program. Following a 45-day federal review period and a series of public hearings, the plan was accepted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Georgia was approved to receive its share of the TANF block grant. The first TANF checks were issued on January 1,1997. In past years, the most important aspect of a caseworker's job was issuing welfare benefits. With the 1996 introduction of WorkFirst the emphasis shifted to helping recipients find work. During SFY 2005 and 2006, Georgia has focused on training the case managers (formerly called case workers) to assist TANF recipients in maintaining employment as well as seeking career advancement. Customers are not just expected to get a job but to keep the job, seek advancement and earn enough money to leave the welfare rolls. As a result, our TANF caseloads are greatly declined. New Developments In October 2004, Georgia initiated a new service delivery strategy for TANF called TANF = WORK NOW. This strategy focuses on 3 elements: (1) Education-TANF Clients are educated at the point of application on all the goals and requirements of the TANF program. (2) Engagement-TANF clients with a work requirement are engaged in work activities within 7 days of the approval of their application. (3) Monitoring-TANF clients are monitored consistently and frequently to ensure adherence to program requirements. This concept yielded a significant decrease in the number of Total TANF Cases, in particular the number of Adult Cases on TANF. In SFY07, the monthly average of adult cases was 4,080. In April 2006, Georgia took TANF = Work Now a step further by focusing on values and beliefs that under gird our work and assist in strengthening Georgia's families. New policies were implemented and case manages were trained on the principles of case management. The values and beliefs that we espouse are: Welfare is not good enough for any family. Government cannot and should not take the place of family. Children are better off when responsible caretakers are able to provide for their families. There is dignity in work, whether with the hand or the head. Georgia urges responsible adult behavior and economic self-sufficiency to end dependency on government assistance. With proper preparation, support and supervision, we can help our customers create a more secure employment future for themselves. In October 2006, Georgia recognized the need for additional transitional supports to assist customers with job retention and career advancement, thereby, launching the Work Support Program. Details of this program are contained in the Work Supports Section. In February 2008, the Final Rule for the Reauthorization of TANF was released by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF)/ the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). This rule was based on changes required by the Deficit Reduction Act ( D M ) of 2005. According to the DRA final document (45 CFR, Parts 261,262,263, and 265. pg. 6772), "The DRA reauthorized the TANF program through fiscal year (FFY) 2010 with a renewed focus on work, program integrity, and strengthening families through healthy marriage promotion and responsible fatherhood." The Deficit Reduction Act retained most of the original welfare reform law. The key changes in the final rule were: (1) defined each of the 12 countable work activities, (2) defined the term "work eligible individual," (3) clarified that a State may count only actual hours of participation, (4) recalibrated the caseload reduction credit by updating the base year from FFY 1995 to FFY 2005, (5) required each State to establish and maintain work participation verification procedures through a Work Verification Plan, (6) established a new penalty for failure to comply with work verification procedures, and (7) allows additional pro-family expenditures to count toward a State's maintenance-ofeffort (MOE) requirement. Georgia has made the necessary changes to be compliant with the new guidelines stated in the final rule. The most significant changes were the new internal control guidelines which required major system changes. There was no other major impact on the way business is conducted in Georgia, or in the requirements for this report. In FFY 2009, Georgia DHS began to see an increase in the TANF Adult caseload. The agency believes the increase in caseload to be as a result of the global economic downturn that became evident near the end of 2008. Staff in the field has reported that more applications are being approved as more people exhaust their resources and are turning to DHS for services. In FFY 2010, the agency rolled out a new business process, Georgia Re-engineering our Work (GROW). The GROW process establishes three functions whereby case managers focus on (1) interviewing applicants, (2) processing applications, or (3) finalizing applications across county lines. An applicant in North Georgia applying for benefits may be interviewed by a case manager in Middle Georgia. The application may then be transmitted to a case manager in West Georgia for processing, and transmitted to another location for finalization or approval. After approval, the case will be transferred back to county where the applicant resides. While enduring reduction in staff and other resources and increases in caseloads, counties and regions are working across physical boundaries to share resources and best practices, as they provide services to families in need. The GROW process symbolizes the concept of doing more with less. TANF Adult CASELOADS SFY 2000 thru SFY 2010 Collaborative Efforts To achieve Georgia's commitment to assisting TANF recipients to fulfill the requirements of Act 389 and to attain self-sufficiency, it was critical to collaborate with other public service agencies, and with entities in the education and business world. Partnerships were formed with the Georgia Department of Labor (GDOL) and with the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) to develop a job-ready workforce. Each agency committed to providing specific services to TANF recipients, with the Georgia Department of Human Services (DHS) (formerly Department of Human Resources - DHR) providing case management and support services. TCSG is the primary source for job training, and GDOL focuses on job development and placement. The services provided through these partnerships have contributed greatly to the decline in the number of families receiving TANF since the implementation of welfare reform. TANF customers utilized the job training, job development and job placement resources from our partners to gain or refresh their skills; thus, becoming more marketable, which enabled them to find better jobs and leave the TANF program. Due to the significant decrease in the caseloads, DHS no longer have a contractual agreement with TCSG. However, both agencies still operate in partnership with them to serve the citizens of Georgia. TANF CASELOADS SFY 2000 thru SFY 2010 In SFY 2000 Georgia had 54,091 cases on its TANF rolls. The current total number of cases on TANF in Georgia for SFY 2010 is 19,988. Georgia has reduced its rolls by approximately 37% in ten years. vii Work Supports In addition to partnerships with other agencies, the availability of work supports was critical to the success of TANF self-sufficiency efforts. In order to secure and maintain employment, many families required assistance with transportation, childcare, and medical expenses, as well as assistance in obtaining child support. In SFY 2006, Georgia implemented new policies, which provided TANF recipients with two new work support services. They were Employment Intervention Services (EIS) and Transitional Support Services (TSS). EIS is non-recurrent, short-term assistance that is equivalent to four times the maximum grant amount for the AU size. The availability of the EIS must be discussed with all clients during application process. EIS is available only once in a client's lifetime. TSS assistance provides transportation, childcare and various incidentals (occupational licensing fees, special work boots, clothing, tools, etc.) to allow TANF applicants and recipients to seek and/or maintain employment. Applicants who are employed or become employed but remain eligible for TANF cash assistance have an option to choose between EIS or TSS. They cannot receive both. TSS is available only once per 24-calendar-month period. During SFY 2007, we implemented the Work Support Program. The Work Support Program provides Work Support Payments (WSP), Transitional Support Services (TSS) and Job Coaching to working families. In order to address job retention, the work support payments will assist the former TANF recipient with additional work related expenses or incidentals, while the TSS provides transportation, childcare and various incidentals needed to maintain employment. The services of the work support program are available to the former TANF families for a period of twelve (12) months and twice in their lifetime receipt of TANF. There has been a decline in the number of former TANF recipients receiving TANF work support payments in Georgia. The decline in work support payments has been attributed to the downturn in the economy and the fact that fewer families are leaving TANF due to employment. ..q Vlll TANF Work Support Payments Number of Clients , 1,600 State Fiscal Years 2007 - 2010 I 1,400 1,200 - I I800 - "06:00 BSFY2010 lSFY2009 s ~ 20y08 .SFY 2007 Jul 773 1,149 1,252 Aug 716 1,049 1,353 Sep 680 1,033 1,479 Oct 636 1,019 1,473 Nov 521 1,009 1,446 1,252 Dec 492 962 1,389 1,353 Jan 431 948 1,352 1,479 Feb 452 920 1,418 1,473 Mar 481 884 1,353 1,446 Apr 507 856 1,287 1,389 2 May Jun 550 472 720 382 1,200 1,352 1,130 1,418 - WSP The Work Support Payments are paid through a two tiered process: During the first six months, the former TANF family can receive a cash supplement of $200.00 per month. The family will also be eligible to receive transitional support services for this initial six-month period. During the second six months, the former TANF family can receive a cash supplement of $100.00 per month. The family will no longer be eligible to receive transitional support services during this time. As the caseloads decreased, the WSP also decreased during SFY 2009. NOTE: The family that remains eligible for a reduced TANF check must be given an option to choose between TANF and the WSP. EIS Employment Intervention Service (EIS) is available to an applicant who has a short term critical need and she or he: has a full time job but is temporarily on unpaid leave due to his or her temporary illness or the illness of a family member and is scheduled to return to work within 4 months, and the family unit meets the gross income ceiling (GIC) test, is employed at the time of application and is potentially eligible for less than the maximum amount of cash assistance for the family size, and so declines TANF cash assistance to preserve months of TANF eligibility, obtains employment during Applicant Job Search that reduces hislher potential benefits and slhe decides to withdraw hislher application to stop the TANF clock. Employment status and amount of earnings must be verified and documented in SUCCESS and the source of verification must be filed in the case record. TSS is available for a period of six months beginning with the first month of ineligibility for cash benefits or the month in which the TANF case closes due to employment. TSS is available to: an applicant whose employment obtained during applicant job search causes the family to become ineligible for cash assistance, an a'pplicant who voluntarily withdraws his or her TANF application and chooses TSS because employment obtained during applicant job search has significantly reduced his or her potential TANF grant amount and the client wishes to preserve months of potential TANF eligibility, an applicant employed at the time of application, is potentially eligible for less than the maximum amount of cash assistance for the family size, declines TANF cash assistance to preserve months of TANF eligibility and chooses TSS to meet his or her immediate need to maintain the job, a recipient whose employment causes the family to become ineligible for cash assistance, a recipient whose on-going TANF case is closed due to loss of earned income disregards, or a recipient who voluntarily closes the TANF case because employment has significantly reduced the TANF grant amount and the client wishes to stop the TANF clock and preserve months of potential TANF eligibility. Comparison of Cash Assistance and Childcare Expenditures in Millions of Dollars SFY 2000 thru SFY 2010 . 'ANFCash Assistance Childcare Subsidies Transportation Transportation expenditures greatly increased with the implementation of TANF and subsequently decreased as the number of TANF cases declined. GDHSIDFCS offers two transportation work supports options: direct payment to applicants and clients and transportation services through GDHS' Consolidated Transportation System. Although funds were available for transportation expenses, transportation services were not readily available, particularly in rural areas. In SFY 2000, GDHSIDFCS collaborated with the Georgia Office of Facilities and Support Services to expand the Consolidated Transportation System. TANF funds invested in this initiative have increased from $345,000 in SFY 2000 to $6M in SFY 2010. TANF funds paid directly to applicants and clients totaled $2.1M in SFY 2010. Childcare Affordable, quality childcare is essential to the success of individuals obtaining and maintaining employment. The average number of children in childcare from month to month increased from 56,313 children in SFY 2009 to 78,289 in SFY 2010. In addition, expenditures in the program increased from $167M in SFY 2009 to $212M in SFY 2010. Childcare continues to be one of the largest programs managed by caseworkers at the county level.

The combination of Low Income Medicaid (LIM), Transitional Medical Assistance (TMA), and Right from the Start Medicaid (RSM) or Peachcare for Kids (PCK) provided and continues to provide this necessary coverage. The 12-month continuation of Medicaid in the form of Transitional Medical Assistance (TMA) provides necessary medical coverage for families who become ineligible for LIM as a result of new or increased earned income. Once TMA ends, the children of most families are eligible for additional coverage through RSM or PCK. As of June of 2010, there were 715,924 Georgia families that received Medicaid through ABD, LIM, TMA, and RSM. Child Support Insufficient child support prevented many single parents from attaining economic selfsufficiency. Increased collections by the Division of Child Support Services (DCSS) program are helping families receive more of the child support owed to them. There had been a slight drop in the amount of child support collected in SF 2008 ($566M) but the collections rebounded in FY 2009 ($595M) and in 2010 ($600M). Increasing Success in Collecting Child Support (Collections in Millions) Additionally, Georgia's Fatherhood Initiative has been expanded throughout the state. The Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) has taken the lead in this project. Job training is provided to assist fathers in securing employment that will enable them to pay child support and provide for their children. This initiative teaches young men how to be more responsible parents. Other Work Supports The future of welfare reform in Georgia will includes a continuing focus on moving families to economic independence through stable employment. Most recipients who are currently remaining on TANF fall into three main categories. The first and largest is comprised of children who receive TANF in "child-only" cases in which a non-parent relative is caring for the children and is not included in the TANF grant. These families are not subject to time limits or work requirements. The second category consists of recipients who are enrolled in an activity and participating at the required federally mandated level for adults receiving TANF for themselves and their children. The third and most challenging category consists of recipients who are dealing with multiple barriers to self-sufficiency. Some of these barriers include substance abuse, illiteracy, . . . Xlll disabilities, and domestic violence issues. The following initiatives continue to assist " these recipients in attaining self-sufficiency: The GDHS Division of Mental Health, Developmental Disabilities and Addictive Diseases (MHDDAD) provide substance abuse counseling and treatment through outpatient and residential facilities. Treatment for clients who have been diagnosed with mental impairment and mental retardation is also provided. The GDOL Vocational Rehabilitation (VR) Program provides disability assessments for recipients who allege a disability that impedes their ability to work. VR also places recipients in appropriate VR programs based on assessment outcomes and makes recommendations that assist DFCS in planning services to help recipients overcome barriers to employment. The TCSG provides expanded adult literacy services. Domestic violence issues have been emphasized through various measures. Contracts have been signed with local shelters to provide assessments for individuals claiming domestic violence as a barrier to becoming self-sufficient. Waivers from certain program requirements may be granted based on assessment outcomes. Training is provided for DFCS staff. Brochures and posters are distributed throughout local areas to increase awareness of available services. Lifetime Limits In Georgia, the receipt of TANF is limited to 48 months in a lifetime for an assistance unit. Beginning in January 1997, each month in which an assistance unit receives TANF, counts toward the 48-month lifetime limit. The federal lifetime limit is 60 months. An assistance unit that is subject to the lifetime limit may have the limit waived if it is determined that the assistance unit meets certain hardship criteria. Hardship Waivers Some families will require additional time to prepare for work and some may never be fully self-sufficient. For these families, Georgia has established a hardship waiver policy that is approved on a case-by-case basis. The waiver of the lifetime limit allows for temporary extensions of TANF to families experiencing additional barriers. The hardship waiver policy was revised in April 2006. There are now three hardship criteria for case managers to use to evaluate each family's situation. 1. A family member is a victim of domestic violence or has been threatened. 2. The applicantlrecipient has an active child protective services case and the circumstances necessitating the CPS case create a barrier to the applicant'slrecipient's attainment of self-sufficiency. 3. The disability of the grantee relative, other eligible adult or a household member is a barrier to employment for the grantee relative or other eligible adults. Other forms of work supports, including Food Stamps, Medicaid, shelter and utility assistance, are available to families that do not meet any of the hardship criteria. Georgia's TANF caseload totaled 50,996 cases in December 2000 when the first 1,446 families reached the 48-month time limit. Of those families, 1,094 met a hardship criterion and were eligible for extended TANF benefits through hardship waivers. Since December 2000, the number of families reaching the 48-month time limit has consistently decreased. In December 2001 yet another milestone in the TANF program was reached when 311 Georgia TANF recipients reached the federally imposed 60-month TANF lifetime limit. Of these 311 recipients, 280 continued to be eligible under a hardship extension. As with the 48-month time limit, the number of families reaching the 60-month federal lifetime limit has decreased. In June 2002 there were 1,566 families receiving a hardship extension, but in June 2005 there were only 230 families receiving extensions. In June of 2006, 49 families received an extension, while in June 2010; Georgia had only 2 families who received a hardship extension. TANF Hardship Extensions June of the Year from 2002 to 2010 Teen Pregnancy Prevention The scope of the problem: In the past 10 years, the birth rate among girls in Georgia 15-19 years old declined 19%, from 63.9 births per 1,000 females in 1998 to 51.7 in 2008. During that same time period, the teen birth rate for non-Hispanic White adolescents declined 36%. The decline in the teen birth rate among non-Hispanic African-Americans was 30%. The rate of teen births has increased among Hispanic adolescents by 17%. Today, more teen mothers are unmarried than in past generations. In 2008, 86% of teens that gave birth were not married, compared to 77% in 1998. Single-parent families, especially young families, are at a greater risk of emotional and financial instability. Teen mothers are also at greater risk of receiving late or no prenatal care, having a premature birth (<37 weeks) or low birth weight baby (<2,500 grams), and experiencing an infant death ( 4 year). In 2006, 6% (1,007) of 15-19 year old mothers had experienced late or no prenatal care. In 2008, 15% (2,850) of births to 15-19 year olds were premature, and 12% (1,973) were low birth weight. The infant mortality rate for 15-19 year olds was 11.06 infant deaths per 1,000 live births for 2003-2005. Repeat births are common in teens. In 2008, 20.9% of all births among teens 15-19 years old were repeat births. Births to 10-14 year olds made up 1.5% of all births to 10- I 9 year olds in 2008. While the teen birth numbers have been declining, pregnancy in this age group remains a serious public health concern. In 2008, 421 girls ages 10-14 became pregnant and 256 gave birth. It is imperative that Georgia reduce the incidence I Teenage birth rates for 1519 year olds by racelethnlcity. 19982008 I i Proportion of teen births by racelethnicity, age 1519,2008 (N=17.221) I Unknown 1,102(7%) of teenage pregnancy among adolescents in order to reduce the Georgia teen birthrates. xvi Progress: Teen birth rates have decreased both in Georgia and nationally. Georgia has made significant progress in reducing teen births and the associated personal and economic costs; but Georgia must continue to reduce the teen birth rate even further by reducing sexual activity and other risky behaviors among unmarried teens. Unintended pregnancies, particularly those occurring very early in a woman's reproductive years, often have adverse health, social, and economic consequences for the mother and her child. Teen pregnancy and out-of-wedlock parenting is linked to poverty and welfare dependency. Teenage mothers are more likely to be unmarried, drop out of school, and rely on Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF). What is the Georgia Department of Community Health Doing? Preventing teen pregnancy is a priority for the Department of Community Health's Division of Public Health. In partnership with the Georgia Department of Human Services, the Division addresses teen pregnancy through two programs using a comprehensive approach, the Georgia Adolescent Health and Youth Development Program and Georgia Women's Health Family Planning Program. Georgia Adolescent Health and Youth Development (AHYD) Program: The goal of the AHYD program is to prevent teenage pregnancy by helping adolescents to grow up healthy, educated, employable, and connected to their families and communities. The Program was established as a result of a teenage pregnancy prevention initiative funded by the Georgia General Assembly in July 1998. The Adolescent Health and Youth Development Program, is housed in the Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Programs (HPDPP), within the Division of Public Health. The AHYD program aims to prevent welfare dependency and improve economic opportunity and responsible parenting. Currently, funding for the program is administered through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Department of Community Health (DCH) and the Department of Human Resources (DHR). Funds are provided to county health departments and local public health districts to support the planning, development, implementation, and evaluation of successful programs that address the broad range of social and economic factors that affect teen behavior, including substance abuse, violence, tobacco use, obesity, and teen sexual activity. Specifically, the AHYD program provides funding to 30 Teen Center Programs in 26 counties, and a Youth Development Coordinator (YDC) in each of the state's 18 public health districts. The state office provides ongoing program monitoring as well as technical assistance and training to district and program staff. Teen Center Programs are operated through county health departments statewide and are located in counties reporting high rates of high school dropouts, HIVISTls, and/or teen pregnancy. xvii Youth Development Coordinators (YDC) coordinates efforts between district and county health departments including Teen Center Programs. Youth Development Coordinators form critical partnerships with out-of-school programs and county and community agencies, holding conferences with communities, faith-based institutions, and public health leaders to foster collaboration around key adolescent health and youth development issues. The state AHYD Consultant provides YDC and Teen Center Program staff with ongoing program and fiscal monitoring, technical assistance, training and resources. Specific strategies: Research shows that successful teen pregnancy prevention programs address the broad range of social and economic factors that affect teen behavior. No single approach is effective by itself. In Georgia a comprehensive approach is utilized. This approach consists of several strategies including the following: Coordinated district adolescent health services: Health districts and county health departments actively partner with local youth organizationslproviders to co-sponsor health education and promotion events, and to assure that youth have access to needed services and opportunities within their communities (e.g., legal services; food and housing assistance, dental services; tutoring and academic support; entrepreneurship; mental health counseling; youth development, physical activity, socialization, mentoring and related services). AHYD supports these local partnerships and collaborations by providing funding for a district Youth Development Coordinator to foster collaboration and coordination of efforts in each of the public health districts in Georgia. Annual district and teen center programsJwork plans demonstrate local collaboration. Comprehensive preventive health services: The Teen center programs provide comprehensive prevention services, including abstinence education, drug and alcohol prevention education, and adolescent reproductive health services. Services are offered in teen-friendly facilities and in locations such as shopping centers, welfare offices, community centers, and mobile units (vans) that go to places where teens feel comfortable. Most of the youth who come to the Teen Centers do so with the knowledge of their parents. Teens come with a wide variety of needs. Teens may ask for information, attend abstinence classes, learn to improve their reaction to stress and conflict, get advice on nutrition and physical activity, obtain sports physicals, be tested for a sexually transmitted disease or pregnancy, join a support group, or just need someone to talk to. These programs also provide youth access to screening for a variety of health problems and when identified, provide or link them to needed services including immunizations and physicals. Teens are referred to Teen Centers by their parents, other teens, school staff, caseworkers, community members, and outreach workers. Some programs also pair pregnant teens with experienced mothers to encourage pregnant teens to access prenatal care, provide them with information and resources to help them care for their babies, and to prevent additional unplanned pregnancies. Abstinence education: Abstinence education is the only certain way to eliminate the risk of pregnancy and STDs. It is the primary prevention method promoted across AHYDfunded programs. Abstinence education emphasizes sexual abstinence as the best choice for preventing pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. AHYD Teen Center programs are funded to conduct "abstinence until marriage" education in conjunction with the DHR Teen Center Pregnancy and STDlHlV Prevention Policy (September 2004). The abstinence education must meet federal criteria. Outreach and community referral: Local adolescent health and youth development programs coordinate with other professionals and agencies to assist adolescents and their families in obtaining needed AHYD services and information. Specially trained staffs with first-hand knowledge of and experience working with at-risk teens are available at Teen Center Programs. Parent education and involvement: Information and education programs are available to help parents strengthen their parenting and communication skills, build strong bonds with their teens, and understand the developmental changes specific to adolescence. Each DCH Teen Center program has established a Parent Advisory Committee (PAC) to provide parents a meaningful way to participate in planning, decision-making, and opportunities for positive health promotion in the community. PACs, in collaboration with local public health officials, are responsible for determining the programs and activities offered in each local community. The County Board of Health in the county in which the Teen Center is located is responsible for establishing and promulgating the by-laws for nomination, selection, and participation in the PAC. PAC meetings must be held at least quarterly, and each Teen Center must offer a Parent Education Program (PEP) for parents in the community to educate and train them on how to be more effective communicators with their teens about sexual issues and values. Faithlhealth community partnerships: The AHYD program has formed a partnership with members of the faith community and held conferences with community, faith, and public health leadership to encourage collaboration and working together for positive youth development and health promotion. Use of risk reduction strategies: Teen Centers using risk reduction strategies that include contraception must follow the DPH "Standard Protocols for Registered Professional Nurses in Public Health", including encouraging parental involvement, signed informed consent, and distribution of contraceptive devices only in a clinical setting by a health care professional. Best practices for prevention programs: All prevention programs funded by DCH must incorporate best practices for effective teen pregnancy and STD prevention programs. In addition, all programs must have a demonstrated impact on key outcomes related to teen pregnancy and STD prevention. Georgia's Women Health Family Planning Program: The AHYD program works synergistically with the Georgia Women's Health Family Planning Program, also located in the Department of Community Health, Division of Public Health (Maternal and Child Health Program). It coordinates family planning services through county health departments. These services are essential to the wellbeing of women, men, adolescents, and the community at large. The Family Planning Program offers opportunities for individuals to plan and space their pregnancies in order to achieve personal goals and self-sufficiency. MCH has developed strategies and implemented services to prevent and reduce repeat adolescent pregnancies, including facilitating referrals to family planning services, increasing community awareness, and promoting life skills and abstinence at the community level. Families, parents, and legal guardians are encouraged to participate in the decision of minors to seek these services. Adolescents are counseled on how to resist coercive attempts to engage in sexual activities. Abstinence as the most effective way to prevent pregnancy, contraceptive and safer sex practice options to reduce the risk for STDIHIV, and pregnancy are discussed with all adolescents. Adolescents are not assumed to be sexually active because they seek family planning services. In 2010 AHYD-funded programs accomplished the following program specific outcomes: I ...easure I: Goal: . rogres,.

The Sexual Violence Prevention Program was created as a result of the Violence against Women Act of 1994. Through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) National Rape Prevention and Education Program, funds are provided to States and Territories to support rape prevention and education programs conducted by rape crisis centers, state sexual assault coalitions, and other community partners. The SVP program is guided by a set of prevention principles which are: Preventing first-time perpetration and victimization; Reducing modifiable risk factors while enhancing protective factors associated with sexual violence perpetration and victimization; Using the best available evidence when planning, implementing, and evaluating prevention programs; Incorporating behavior and social change theories into prevention programs; Using population-based surveillance to inform program decisions and monitor trends; and Evaluating prevention efforts and using the results to improve future program plans. 1 The SVP Program provides rural, urban, and suburban areas the opportunity to change sexual violence through the implementation of the following legislatively approved activities: Educational Seminars; Training programs for professionals; Preparation of information material; Operation of hotlines; Training programs for students and campus personnel designed to reduce the incidence of sexual assault at colleges and universities; Increase the awareness about drugs used to facilitate rapes or sexual assaults; and Other efforts to increase awareness in underserved communities and among individuals with disabilities as defined in Section 3 of the American with Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. Section 12102), During 2009-2010, the following community based agencies were awarded a contract to carry out the legislatively improved activities: University Health Services, Inc./Rape Crisis and Sexual Assault Services Augusta Sexual Assault Support Center, Inc. - Columbus Women In Need of God's Shelter, Inc. - Dublin Rape Crisis of the Coastal Empire, Inc. - Savannah Houston Area Drug Action Council, Inc. Southern Crescent Sexual Assault Center, Inc. - Jonesboro Support In Abusive Family Emergencies, Inc. - Blairsville North Georgia Mountain Crisis Network, Inc. - Blue Ridge Carroll Rape Crisis Center, Inc. - Carrollton. During 2009, the contracted agencies provided educational services to 74,973 school aged children, aged 5-18; trained 2,260 professionals; provided information and referrals to 2,759 hotline callers; and participated in 303 community awareness events. DHS Afterschool Care Program Since the fall of 2005, the DHS Afterschool Care Program (formerly DHR Afterschool Services) has expanded out-of-school time services to school age youth throughout the state of Georgia. The program was designed to and continues to support DHS' broader goal of reducing teen pregnancy, promoting self-sufficiency among families and ending intergenerational poverty. Educational attainment and healthy living are key factors in preventing future welfare dependency among today's youth, particularly youth of economically disadvantaged families. Structured out-of-school time services can play a critical role in reducing the opportunity for youth to engage in at-risk behavior, including pre-marital sex, motivating youth to reach a high level of educational attainment, such as on-time grade promotion and graduation from high school, and can provide youth with an opportunity to increase physical fitness activity and gain exposure to good nutrition habits that helps in the prevention and decrease of obesity and other diseases and illnesses that can affect them. In FFY '06 over $13 million dollars in TANF and state funding were used to expand summer and afterschool programs for children ages 6-19. These funds were distributed to community-based organizations and public agencies and the awards ranged from $28,000 to $800,000 to over $6 million for the GA Alliance of Boys and Girls Clubs, Inc. statewide. Over 200 sites and 19,000 youth benefited from these services. Through a pilot program with the Division of Mental Health (formerly a part of the Department of Human Resources) 5,300 youth with severe emotional difficulty and behavior disorders took part in summer recreation programs. A total of $3.5 million was provided for these programs. In FFY '07 the budget in TANF and state funding remained at the same level but the distribution was changed. Funds were distributed to community-based organizations xxiii and public agencies. The awards ranged from $18,000 to $647,900 to over $6 million for the GA Alliance of Boys and Girls Clubs, Inc. Over 230 sites and 19,000 youth benefited from these services. Through the continued partnership with the Department's Division of Mental Health, 2,800 young people with severe emotional difficulty and behavior disorders (or those at risk for developing such behaviors) took part in summer recreation programs. A total of $1.8 million was provided for these programs. In FFY '08 the Afterschool Care Program was funded solely with TANF funds. In addition, the maintenance of effort requirement was increased from $20M to $28M. Funds were distributed to community based-organizations and public agencies. The awards ranged from $25,000 to $850,000 to $8 million for the Georgia Alliance of Boys and Girls Clubs, Inc. to continue providing services state wide. Over 300 sites and 23,000 youth benefited from these services. $1M in funding was allocated to continue the pilot program with the Division of Mental Health and service youth with severe emotional or co-occurring disorders. In FFY '09 the Afterschool Care Program continued to provide funding to programs using only TANF funds and the awards ranged from to $5,000 to $850,000 for community-based organizations and public agencies and $7 million for the Georgia Alliance of Boys and Girls Clubs, Inc. This year, the DHS Afterschool Care Program funds have impacted over 330 program sites and over 38,000 youth have benefited from these programs across the state. Through a partnership with the Georgia Afterschool Investment Council, United Way of Metropolitan Atlanta and the Governor's Office of Children and Families, the Georgia Afterschool Institute was implemented and provided professional development training to staff that work in the out-of-school time field. In FFY '10, the Afterschool Care Program supported 318 afterschool and/or summer program sites. These sites collectively served over 22,000 youth throughout the state of Georgia. Award amounts ranged from $25,000 to $7 million dollars and each contracting organization and agency that provided afterschool and/or summer services to youth and their families were required to provide a commitment of matching funds. The total commitment of matching funds for FFY '10 was $28M to support DHS' Maintenance of Effort. THE RESULTS OF GEORGIA'S PRWORA INITIATIVE Georgia has successfully achieved and in some instances exceeded the goals and requirements of the TANF program as mandated by the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, including participation rates, maintenance of effort spending, and reducing the teen pregnancy rates. This effort has enabled thousands of Georgia's citizens to achieve an improved way of life through welfare reform. Children of TANF families observe first-hand the benefits of work, as their parents provide for them a higher standard of living than was possible on welfare. These positive role models will, undoubtedly reduce the likelihood of children becoming future adult TANF recipients. Georgia will continue to demonstrate the successes that have been achieved for its families. A. The Total TANF Caseload Count Total TANF Caseload Count State Fiscal Year 2010 Average Monthly B.
