Council Member Lincoln Restler inquires about the timeline for implementing work requirements for public assistance recipients. Administrator Scott French explains that the rollout will happen in monthly waves starting mid-April and continuing through the end of the year. The goal is to engage almost all of the required populations during this period.
- The first wave will begin in mid-April, with subsequent waves occurring monthly
- The rollout will include both current recipients and new individuals entering the system
- The implementation is designed to be intentional and not overwhelm the system or people
