The Office of the Attorney General shall, to the extent federal funding is available, establish a statewide program to help low-income, noncustodial parents find and keep employment. The goal of the program shall be to reduce welfare payments by helping participants become financially responsible for their children. The office shall involve local social service providers and state and local government agencies, and may provide incentives to employers who hire program participants. The program shall also encourage noncustodial parents to be actively involved in their children’s lives. Noncustodial parents may be required to enroll in the program by court order.
