West Virginia SB529 mandates the Department of Human Services to create a pilot program for contracted caseworker aide services.
West Virginia SB529 requires the Department of Human Services to establish a pilot program to contract with private entities for supplemental caseworker aide services. These aides will assist with administrative tasks, aiming to improve case management capacity and outcomes. The pilot will run for 15 months, focusing on districts with high caseloads, persistent vacancies, or high out-of-state placements. Aides must meet the same requirements as departmental caseworkers. The department will evaluate the pilot and may expand it statewide if successful.
