EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

As you review the 2015-2016 annual report, please be mindful of all the contributors to the

success of this Agency. I wish to express my appreciation to the UCHRA Board of Directors, Mem-

bers of the General Assembly, the State of Tennessee government and employees, and the employ-

ees of the Upper Cumberland Human Resource Agency who are some of the best in the state. We

are truly blessed to work with such kind, compassionate and caring individuals who have a deep

concern for the residents of the Upper Cumberland region.

UCHRA continues to provide help to three out of four residents in our 14-county region, ei-

ther directly or indirectly through a family member. As we strive to increase this number, we pledge

to continue providing efficient and effective help for the betterment of our communities through

greater public awareness by increasing community outreach. A giant step forward is reflected in

the following pages, and it is with great pleasure that I present this annual report for your review.

EMPLOYMENT NETWORK/TICKET TO WORK PROGRAM LWIA 7 was the first workforce area in Tennessee to be designated as an Employment Network by the Social Security Administration (SSA) to assist individuals receiving Social Security Disability benefits to find employment. The partnership of one-stop community level representatives and an Integrated Resource Team provides communication and collaboration that results in enhanced coordination of services such as training, education, employment goals, and support for job seekers with disabilities. LWIA 7 has generated outcome payments from the SSA for having placed persons with disabilities in substantial gainful activities. The payments are received for those individuals who no longer receive cash disability benefits. WIA funding, Vocational Rehabilitation funding, Employment Network earnings, and possibly private funds will be leveraged to maximize opportunities for employment of individuals with disabilities.
