PROGRAM/PROJECT INFORMATION Reference Code :
Name: Triage Targeted Populations Program VAX#:
Funding Source, Year, and Amount of funds: Wagner-Peyser 10% Discretionary Funds $36,000.00
Period of Performance: From: September 1, 2000 To: August 31, 2001_ _
I. SCOPE OF WORK:
A. Purpose and Goal
The purpose of the Triage Targeted Populations Program is to provide enhanced and
focused basic labor exchange services to individuals with disabilities, offenders. and
non-English speaking clients seeking assistance through Employment Services of Weld
County's Workforce Center. The system, while providing services to the universal
population, does not allow more one-on-one intensive staff assistance to those
individuals with special needs. This Program will allow for a staff person to take the time
necessary to assist these special populations so they can fully understand and utilize the
core and intensive services offered under the Wagner-Peyser basic labor exchange as
well as access partner programs as appropriate.
B. Services to be Provided
A bi-lingual specialist will be trained to provide more in-depth services to the identified
targeted populations. Individuals will be provided targeted one-on-one services which
are more intensive than those provided through the Wagner-Peyser basic labor
exchange. Services to the targeted populations will be provided through a Triage
approach as follows:
Level 1
Individuals who are first entering the employment system are registered by the
Registration Staff at Employment Services of Weld County. During this registration
process, staff will identify individuals who meet the Triage Targeted Population Program
criteria and determine their level of need within the system. Individuals who are job
ready and capable of accessing the basic labor exchange services through Employment
Services of Weld County's Workforce Center without any additional assistance will be
encouraged to use the automated and other self help information systems, or to request
additional job referrals or interviews to obtain employment. Individuals at this level do
not require any additional assistance or more intensive services.
Level 2
During the registration process, individuals within the targeted populations identified as
employable but who need some degree of additional assistance (e.g., assistance in
understanding and being able to use the resources available through Employment
Services Resource room, additional assessments, counseling, etc.) will be referred to
the Triage Targeted Populations Program staff. Individuals who are not job ready and
who require more in-depth assistance in accessing services will be the highest level of
priority for the Program.
Individuals at this level will be provided one-on-one assistance in understanding how to
access the services provided in the resource room and how to use the technology
available; be provided more intensive services which may include assistance with
resume preparation, individual counseling and job development based upon the
individual's capabilities and limitations, intensive follow-up services which will assist the
individual in obtaining and retaining employment, and in-depth coordination with other
community agencies to assist the individuals in accessing needed services.
Individuals who require additional assistance after receiving the more intensive services
of this Program will be referred to partner agencies' programs including the Workforce
Investment Act (WIA) or other programs operated by the partners. This assistance will
include help with scheduling appointments, acquiring the necessary documentation
needed for the programs, etc.
C. Projected Number of Participants to be Served
The following table outlines the level of individuals in the targeted populations. It is
anticipated that between 20 to 25% would benefit from the Triage Targeted Populatior
Program.
Special Target Groups Customers Served PY99 Projected Customers
for PY 2000
Offenders 83 90
Individuals with a Disability 479 500

Individuals with a Disability- SAMS 7-1-99 to 6-30-00
Monolingual Individuals- JOLS Active Caseload 7-17-00
D. Expected Outcomes
It is anticipated that the Triage Targeted Populations Program will assist the identified
individuals in obtaining employment earlier and/or access partner programs quicker.
E. Coordination with other One-Stop Partners
The partners have agreed to provide brochures on their services which will be made
available at each access point, cross-train staff to help customers access appropriate
services, and coordinate employer relations efforts as appropriate. Partner
organizations have agreed to have staff on site at the One-Stop for a period of time each
week. Customers in the Targeted Population Program whose need correspond to one
of the Workforce Center's partners' programs, will be able to obtain information and
access partner programs during these times or through appointment at the partner's
main location. While on site, partner agencies will assist Employment Services staff in
obtaining the additional skills needed for working with the targeted populations.
F. Other Financial Resources to Support Program
The following programs and funding streams will help support the delivery of services
through the Weld County One-Stop system:
Workforce Investment Act: Title I Dislocated Worker, Adults, and Youth
Wagner-Peyser- Basic Labor Exchange
Welfare to Work
Temporary Assistance to Needy Families
Employment First Food Stamp Job Search Program
AmeriCorps
Youth Crime Intervention and Prevention Program
Disabled Veterans Outreach Specialist
Partners, including Right to Read, Rocky Mountain SER, and the Division of Vocational
Rehabilitation will provide on site services, support and assistance. Aims Community

appropriate. Additional connections and staff support will be made with the justice
system to increase the potential for individuals who are in the offender portion of the
program.
