Sec. 646.420  What assistance can be provided under the ``supportive services'' category?

    The provision of supportive services must be directly related to 
retaining employment, and not otherwise available to the client. 
Supportive services include, but are not limited to: Day care; 
transportation; work or protective clothing or equipment; tools; medical 
devices such as eyeglasses or braces; food; shelter; special services or 
equipment for the disabled; and financial counseling. Supportive 
services may be provided in-kind or through cash assistance. In cases 
where severe substance abuse or chemical dependency is a significant 
barrier to employment, substance abuse treatment may be undertaken as a 
``supportive services'' activity, to the extent that such services do 
not constitute medical services.
