FAQ: I AM A 1 TO 1 AID AND I’M STILL PART-TIME. MY POSITION IS FEDERALLY FUNDED YET I’M STILL PART-TIME. WHEN CAN SUPPORT STAFF BECOME FULL-TIME WORKERS? CAN GFT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS?

We believe that there may be a legal challenge to the use of part-time employees but unfortunately the Legislature keeps allowing it and various agencies are using this to balance the budgets on the backs of our families. Unfortunately, good jobs with fair pay and benefits are not this Legislature’s priority. In fact in this budget bill they allow Directors to turn every job that is either fully or partially federally funded into part time jobs. Click here for more FAQ’s. We will constantly be updating the FAQ’s as we visit more schools and eventually the rest of the agencies.
