     256J.315 County and tribal cooperation. 

    The county agency must cooperate with tribal governments in 
 the implementation of MFIP-S to ensure that the program meets 
 the special needs of persons living on Indian reservations.  
 This cooperation must include, but is not limited to, the 
 sharing of MFIP-S duties including initial screening, 
 orientation, assessments, and provision of employment and 
 training services.  The county agency shall encourage tribal 
 governments to assume duties related to MFIP-S and shall work 
 cooperatively with tribes that have assumed responsibility for a 
 portion of the MFIP-S program to expand tribal responsibilities, 
 if that expansion is requested by the tribe.
