Strategies

Support acquisition of job-specific skills through education, certification programs, or on-the-job training, often with personal development resources and other supports

Provide financial assistance to working parents, or parents attending school, to pay for child care

Provide educational and behavioral interventions that support patients’ ability to actively manage their condition(s) in everyday life

Expand refundable earned income tax credits for working individuals and families with low to moderate incomes

Adopt policies that allow custodial parents who receive Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) to collect all child support paid by the non-custodial parent; no portion is retained by the state

Provide a fixed, multi-component set of fall prevention interventions to older adults, usually in community settings, without an individualized risk assessment

Use visual tools to prompt safe practices, standardize communication, and ensure no step is forgotten before, during, or after a medical procedure or other health care situation

Conduct individual assessments that gauge older adults’ risk of falling and develop personalized approaches to help prevent falls

Establish time-limited, subsidized, paid jobs to help individuals with barriers to employment transition to unsubsidized employment
