Board approves grant‑funded career development facilitator through SEMCA funds
Summary
Monroe County voted to add a career development facilitator position fully funded by SEMCA dollars to Michigan Works; the role will provide case management, workshop support and carry a partial PATH caseload for DHHS referrals.
The board approved adding a career development facilitator position to Michigan Works' staff, fully funded by grant dollars awarded by SEMCA (Southeast Michigan Community Alliance). A Michigan Works representative explained the role — often called a career coach — will perform case management, manage workshop calendars and carry a partial caseload of PATH clients referred by the Department of Health and Human Services.
Commissioners asked about formats for outreach materials and the presenter confirmed calendars can be sent as JPEGs as requested. The motion to accept the SEMCA‑funded position carried by roll call; no local general fund dollars were requested for this addition.
