Background Since 2002 the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services
has posted the Public Assistance Monthly Statistics Report (PAMS). The
report provided counties, stakeholders and constituents the opportunity to view
monthly case summary data for Ohio Works First (OWF), Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program (SNAP) and Publicly Funded Child Care (PFCC). The
report included numbers for recipients, assistance groups and
expenditures. In August 2018 the State of Ohio transitioned, statewide, to
a new eligibility system, Ohio Benefits. This system replaced the Client
Registry Information System and Eligibility (CRISE). With the adoption of
the new system the PAMS report has been replaced. New Report The new report, the Caseload Summary Statistics Report,
provides data for OWF, SNAP and PFCC on a state and county level. The
data will reflect data 2
months prior (example: November data will be posted in January). October 2018 November 2018 December 2018 January 2019 February 2019 March 2019 The Public Assistance Monthly Statistics (PAMS) reports statewide and county specific information on four ODJFS program areas: - Ohio Works First (OWF)
