I. PURPOSE AND
				SCOPE
The purpose of the memorandum of understanding is to
				  facilitate and maintain an interagency system for the coordination of services

				  commitment to provide for the coordination of such services through provision
				  for the mutual exchange of information and the referral of eligible individuals
				  to appropriate employment and training programs and supportive services.
II. EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION
The parties to this memorandum are committed to strict
				  standards of confidentiality with regard to interagency communication
				  concerning mutual clients and will respect and observe either agency's
				  confidentiality policies as well as Section 7 of the Freedom of Information Act
				  (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1989, ch. 116, par. 207), Sections 11-9 through 11-12 of the
				  Public Aid Code (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1989, ch. 23, pars. 11-9 through 11-12), 89
				  Ill. Adm. Code
				  102.30,

The parties to this memorandum will appoint an individual to
				  serve as interagency liaisons to facilitate coordination and the sharing of
				  information. The designated interagency liaisons shall be identified in an
				  addendum to this memorandum of understanding.
The SSA and the Illinois Department of Public Aid, in an
				  effort to better understand each other's operation, will exchange program
				  information on a regular basis. Information to be exchanged includes, but is
				  not limited to: a schedule of meetings of advisory bodies/private industry
				  councils, copies of job training plans, grant applications or other funding
				  requests, program descriptions, funding sources and amounts, targeted
				  participants (if any), and timeframes for program enrollments/operations. A
				  discussion of information which will be exchanged, and the procedures to be
				  used in exchanging such information on an ongoing basis, as well as in the
				  event of a mass layoff or plant closing, will be developed and attached as an
				  addendum to this memorandum.
III. REFERRALS
Referrals and information exchange forms may be developed if
				  not already in place. All such documents will be attached as an addendum to
				  this memorandum.
A referral system, formal or informal, has been developed by
				  the parties of this agreement and a description or outline of such system will
				  be attached as an addendum to this memorandum.
All such referral documents and an outline or description of
				  the referral system will become the formal operating referral procedure between
				  the two cooperating parties to this memorandum.

				  by each party. Amendments to provisions may be made by mutual consent. Both
				  parties will participate in an annual evaluation of the provisions of this
				  memorandum. This memorandum may be withdrawn at any time by written
				  communication, dated and signed by the Substate Grantee or the written
				  communication, dated and signed by the Substate Grantee or the Director or
