PAL staff must ensure the PAL contract provider (or in special circumstances PAL staff) assesses the young adult’s current situation to determine:
• if he or she will receive assistance; and
• the amount he or she will receive.
When assessing the young adult’s financial need, PAL staff must consider the young adult’s:
• living arrangement;
• employment status;
• living expenses and needs;
• sources of income such as an earnings statement or tax return;
• use of community resources for financial assistance; and
• savings or checking account bank statement.
