We present interim findings from a randomized controlled trial (RCT) impact study of the Nevada RESEA (Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessment) and Nevada REANV (Reemployment and Eligibility Assessment) programs. Both programs require Unemployment Insurance (UI) claimants to undergo an eligibility review and engage in job counseling services to retain their eligibility status. The interim findings of this study, funded by the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation, are summarized in the infographic below.

Our team, including Eileen Poe-Yamagata, Peter Mueser, Paris Nearchou, and yours truly, successfully designed and executed a large-scale RCT impact study of the Nevada RESEA and REANV programs. The interim findings of this study, funded by the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation, show that the two programs: 1)    Increased the uptake of job counseling among Unemployment Insurance (UI) claimants. 2)    Decreased the duration of UI spells by 1.8 weeks, resulting in an average savings of $586 in UI benefits per participant. 3)    Increased participants’ employment rate and earnings in quarter 1 after entry by 4.7 percentage points and $205, respectively. These findings validate the longstanding success of the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation in deploying job-search assistance interventions which bolster the reemployment outcomes of UI claimants and generate significant savings for the UI program. Moreover, our results enrich the U.S. Department of Labor's collection of evidence-based practices concerning the RESEA program during a period characterized by a robust labor market. Interim findings will be updated with new data by the end of 2024. Final evaluation results are expected to be available by the end of 2025.
