The Road to Employment: What CWICS need to know - 2011
While CWICs generally understand the importance of work under the new WIPA paradigm, there has been some confusion about how to best serve beneficiaries who stand at various points along the employment continuum.

Still others are at some intermediate point between contemplating employment and working. Beneficiaries from different points along the employment continuum present with very different service needs.
