Welcome to the MIG-RATS!  In this section, you'll find more information about our strategies for supporting state-level MIG research activities and helping MIG researchers work together and learn from each other. 

 

Benefits Counseling Outcomes Workgroup
This workgroup coordinates MIG state researchers and others in their efforts to develop strategies for examining the outcomes and impact of work incentives benefits counseling services.
