Transform Milwaukee Jobs Program - Foster Population

Overview:

The Transform Milwaukee Jobs (TMJ) program provides subsidized employment to unemployed low-income adults in Milwaukee County. TMJ is operated by the Department of Children and Families (DCF) and was established by Wis. Stat. s. 49.163 as created by 2013 Wisconsin Act 20. The TMJ program began operations on January 1, 2014. Since that date, one contractor has served the General Population and a different contractor has served the Foster Population. To date approximately 1,000  individuals within the Foster Population have received TMJ services. The service area for the General Population contract will be Milwaukee County.

The goals of TMJ are:

  1. To transition individuals into stable unsubsidized employment.
  2. To increase child support payments through stable unsubsidized employment.
  3. To support reunification plans with children by enhancing parental capabilities and long-term child safety through stable unsubsidized employment.
  4. To help former foster youth live independently through stable unsubsidized employment.
