CalWORKs Student Eligibility Definitions
County Referred Participant:
This designation applies if the student is a CalWORKs/cash aid recipient, has at least one eligible child and was referred
to the community college by the county welfare office and has an approved Welfare-to-Work (WTW) plan or is in the
process of developing a WTW plan.
Self-Initiated Participant (SIP):
This designation applies if the student is a CalWORKs/cash aid recipient, has at least one eligible child and is attending
the community college as a Self-Initiated Participant (SIP) and is or will be in the process of obtaining an approved
WTW plan through their county welfare office. Refer to the California Department of Social Services All County Letter
99-32 for additional information on SIP criteria.
Voluntary Exempt:
This designation applies if the student is a CalWORKs/cash aid recipient, has at least one eligible child but has been
exempted from participating in WTW activities by the county for a reason enumerated with an All County Letter or All
County Information Notice.
Exempt Student (other):
This designation applies if the student is a CalWORKs/cash aid recipient, has at least one eligible child but has been
exempted from participating in WTW activities. The college must have documentation in the student’s file proving the
student’s exempt status and when the exemption will expire.
Post-Employment Participant:

beginning of each term.
