Personal Responsibility Plan

When an individual qualifies for the Families First program, one of the first things he/she will be asked to do is to develop a Personal Responsibility Plan (PRP) with the help of their caseworker.

As part of the PRP, the participant must:

· Make sure their children receive immunization shots and health checks.

· Make sure their children attend school, including kindergarten, regularly.

· Cooperate with child support requirements.

· Agree to work or attend a work preparation activity, if not exempt.

Teen parents under age 18 must:

· Stay in school and attend regularly.

· Live at home with parents or another responsible adult.
