Field Ops Memo 2008-39: TAFDC Vocational Specialists in TAOs Update

Due to budgetary constraints, the initiative to have vocational specialists in all TAOs statewide (detailed in Field Operations Memo 2008-12) has been suspended.   Vocational specialists will continue to be staffed in the following TAOs: Brockton, Dudley Square, Fall River, Holyoke, Lowell, New Bedford, Newmarket Square, North Shore, Revere, Springfield Liberty, Springfield State and Worcester.  Case managers in these TAOs should follow the procedures in Field Operations Memo 2008-12 for client referrals and follow-up.
