This agency also assists in:
  • Ensuring that what the person spends his/her funds on follows the rules of the program and the lead-agency-approved plan
  • Helping the person obtain workers' compensation
  • Educating the person on how to employ workers
  • Documenting and reporting all spending of program funds

These agencies are accountable to several state and federal agencies including: the Minnesota Department of Labor, the Minnesota Department of Revenue, the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED), the United States Department of Labor, and the Internal Revenue Service.
