Subject: | Public Assistance and School Participation |
In the near future, I plan to introduce legislation that, if enacted, would amend a section of the Public Welfare Code of 1967 regarding Responsibilities and Obligations of Department, Applicants and Recipients. Currently, each applicant or recipient of assistance is required, as a condition of eligibility, to enter into a mutual agreement with the PA Department of Public Welfare. This mutual agreement sets forth the responsibilities and obligations to be undertaken by the recipient, the time frames within which each obligation is to be completed, the penalties for failure to comply and the actions to be taken by the Department. My legislation simply expands a recipient's obligations to include volunteering at his/her child's school based on the needs of the school for a period as determined by regulations set by the department. If you would like to join me in cosponsoring this legislation, please contact Heather Epler at hepler@pahousegop.com. Thank you for your consideration. |
