EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
For the period September 30, 1997 through September 29, 2000, the Institute for Social and Economic Development (ISED) received $450,000 to adminster a Job Opportunities for Low-Income Individuals program. Our objectives were to assess the achievement of the grant objectives and to determine compliance with grant terms and conditions. We found that ISED did not fully meet the original grant objective of creating 120 full-time jobs. ISED officials said their revised objectives were communicated to ACF.
