Ohio Works First (OWF) provides time-limited cash assistance to families
meeting the eligibility rules. A self-sufficiency contract (SSC) is required
of all adults. The purpose of the SSC is to document both agency and the
individual's responsibilities in pursuing the goal of becoming self-sufficient.
All adults are required to be assessed as part of the process of developing
the SSC. The assessment is a review of work history, education and interests.
The individual and his/her Success Coach work together in developing this contract.
All required participants must sign a SSC in order to have the cash
assistance released to them. The SSC establishes work activities and other
obligations the recipients must fulfill in order to continue to receive these
benefits; it also outlines the supportive services the county will provide
to the participants.
