Discuss benefits of collaboration with Dollar Smart
Discuss GDIT HR and Managers conversations about hiring PWDs and Ticket holders

SSA misinformation about earning limits and Ticket to Work information. Local SSA office director would not allow my team to come and do inservice and training on Ticket to Work and CareerSource Gulf Coast services. Local office director came to Summit and only stayed for five minutes because she thought it was just a meet and greet.
Goodwill pursuades our Ticket clients to move their Ticket to them whenever we refer clients to them for computer training or hospitality class, etc. for other minor services.
The local public trolley does not have direct routes to a large employer that has hired several Ticket clients. I am working with a regional transportation board to change this.
Promote MFT website throughout Job Center and Resource Room
Work with Ticket clients and then expand to all one-on-one clients to encourage them to complete MoneySmart training.
Place on Resource Room computers; possibly a workshop on a regular basis.
