Grant to the State of Wisconsin, Department of Workforce 
Development

AGENCY: Office of Child Support Enforcement, ACF, DHHS.

ACTION: Notice of award.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that a noncompetitive grant award is 
being made to the State of Wisconsin Department of Workforce 
Development to further support their Child Support Demonstration 
Evaluation project. This project will continue the evaluation of the 
Wisconsin child support passthrough and disregard policy, through the 
analysis of a later cohort of participants, longer-term follow-up, and 
an evaluation of the impact of changes in the pass-through policy.
    This three-year project is being funded noncompetitively, because 
it is expected to provide valuable information useful to this 
Department and other practitioners regarding research and demonstration 
initiatives related to welfare reform, child support, and the well-
being of low-income children and families. Wisconsin will build on 
their work in the Child Support Demonstration Evaluation project and do 
an extensive analysis of the effects of passing through child support 
payments to families as well as the effects on child support 
enforcement performance. The cost of the project is $463,836 for three 
years. The period of this funding will extend through September 29, 
2003.
