Sonography Programs Help Lift Millions of People from Poverty
On Jan. 20, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will offer the Sonography Program Liftmaster Remote to anyone living in a rural area that has not received a liftmaster program.
The program is designed to provide temporary liftmaster jobs for people who are in need and currently receive the Job Training Assistance Program (JTAP) benefits.
This program, known as the JTAP Program, is a one-time, six-month temporary liftworker program that is meant to help those with no other employment options to get back on their feet, said Mary Ellen Schofield, associate director of the Sonographer Program at the HHS Office of Technical Services.
In addition to lifting people from poverty, the program also helps people with disabilities, those with disabilities who have limited English proficiency, and those with chronic health issues.
The Sonography program is being implemented to help lift people from the most challenging circumstances and provide opportunities to improve their lives, according to a press release from the HHS.
“This is an important opportunity for people living in rural areas, particularly those in remote areas, to get jobs that offer a better living and a better future,” said Schofild.
“These lifts can provide a lifeline and help families get back to work.”
The Sonographer program will also help lift those who are unemployed and to those who have been without work for several months.
In the past, the federal government has been involved in the Sonographic Program program, with the Sonographers program in Mississippi helping lift people out of poverty, according the HHS release.
The Job Training and Job Exchange Act of 2018 (JTAEA) expanded the Sonograph program to help eligible people who do not currently have jobs in rural counties who are not eligible for other benefits and have lost or been unable to receive Job Training assistance.
The federal government also provided assistance for the Sonographies program to individuals who had lost their lift jobs because of the JTAEA and who would like to receive lift assistance in the future.
This new program will be offered to anyone who needs help getting back to a job and is willing to take a few steps to earn a lift.

The Sonographer Remote was first developed as part of the Obama Administration’s Job Corps program.
Since then, the Sonographically Program has become the most popular liftworker service in the United States, according Toi Poh, director of advocacy at the Center for American Progress.
The sonography program helps lift people who have no other jobs, who are living in poverty, or who have a chronic health issue.
It is also one of the most comprehensive and cost-effective programs of its kind, helping lift more than 30 million people out from poverty and more than 1.5 million people from chronic illness.
“The Sonography Remote provides people with limited English skills, who live in remote communities, the opportunity to get a lift, while also helping those who need help get back into their homes and back to the work force,” said Poh.
“In addition to helping lift a person from poverty who would otherwise be in a low-wage job, the Remote also helps those with disability get back up and running by providing a safe place for them to live and work.”
This new program is a tremendous step forward for the federal Government, providing millions of people in the U.S. with the ability to get up and going again,” said Shanna Doss, director for social justice and equality at the ACLU of Illinois.
The Sonographers Program, which has been in place since 1997, provides temporary lifts in rural communities and provides opportunities for liftworkers to earn up to $1,000 per lift in a 12-month period.
The Remote is the second program the Sonographs program has expanded.
The first was expanded to include those in the National Capital Region (NCR) on Jan. 6, 2018.
The Sonographies Program is one of a number of federal programs designed to help people in remote, low-income and rural areas get back onto their feet.
It includes a wide variety of assistance including grants, grants for small businesses, a loan for new home construction and a grant to help a person with disabilities earn a wage in their area.
The JTASA Program, or Job Training And Job Exchange, also helps lift job seekers and people in low-paying jobs get back in the workforce.
This new grant will be a huge boost for our rural communities, especially the Sonats.
We want to continue to work with these programs, which we know will benefit so many people.
As part of this program, the HHS is also offering support to those living in remote rural communities who need jobs to make ends meet.
This will help lift some of the people who currently live in poverty in the area, said Schor.
The government is committed
