1. Experience/Qualifications (1 page max)
Located in Anaheim, California, the Orange County Conservation Corps (OCCC) was founded
in 1993 as a part of the Anaheim anti -gang task force, and serves at -risk youth ages 18-25 years
old throughout Orange County, California. OCCC is a 501 (e) (3) and currently has a team of 11
board members, and 30 full time staff members. Many of OCCC staff are graduates of our
program, and continued to give back through leadership and mentor roles. The OCCC mission is:
"To serve young, at -risk adults through employment, training and educational programs that
build self-sufficiency and benefit the community through conservation driven projects. " OCCC
headquarters is open 7-5pm Monday through Thursday and 8-12pm Friday and located off
Raymond and Orangethorpe at: 1853 North Raymond Ave., Anaheim CA 92801, with several
major public transportation access points, public parking, and bike locks. OCCC also offers
Corpsmember pick-up points throughout Santa Ana, Anaheim, Buena Park and surrounding
areas as needed. Facilities decor highlight youth success and youth, entering facilities are greeted
by Corpsmembers in professional training positions, within a state-of-the-art conservation
building. Operational facilities and educational programs are located less than 1 mile away at
1548 East Walnut Ave., Fullerton CA 92831, in collaboration with the Orange County
Department of Education, College and Career Preparatory Academy (CCPA). CCPA offers high
school diploma programs, STEM training coursework, and education services, with 5 full time
staff members on site. CCPA school hours are: Monday through Friday from 9-6pm.
OCCC actively administers the Santa Ana WIOA Youth Programs contract. For the past 13 years
OCCC has met and/or exceeded all contract measures, and actively meets all current contract
obligations from 2017-18 and follow-up services from 2016-17 Youth. OCCC staff continues to
deliver services to a majority of out of school youth through WIOA contracts year over year, in a
long-standing record of service excellence and contract management. Further, OCCC provided
youth employment services through the Orange County Workforce Development Board for 6
years, serving over 700 youth, and meeting and/or exceeding full contract expectations. OCCC
currently provides contract services for the Orange County Development Board WIOA National
Dislocated Worker Grant, WIA National Emergency Grants (NEG), serving 62 youth with
employment and skills training. OCCC operates an annual budget of $4,311,204 with major
funding provided from the State of California, Anaheim, Santa Ana and OC WIOA, North
Orange County Public Safety Task Force, fees for service contracts, and various grants to
OCCC.
In our 251h year of operation, OCCC provides pathways to skill development resources,
employment, training, and educational services to Orange County's hardest -to -reach and neediest
segment of our young adult population. In these 25 years, OCCC has provided paid job training
program support to over 8,400 opportunity youth and their families by instilling a strong work
ethic, developing an individual's self-worth, while providing the necessary experience and job
skills to ensure that our young adults become successful candidates in the workforce. No other
organization in Orange County provides as many hours of paid work experience —up to 29 hours
a week at $12.00 per hour. Last year OCCC paid over 84,000 hours to our Corpsmembers and
over 600,000 hours during the past 5 years.
2. Proposed Program (1 page max)
Youth will enroll in the Orange County Conservation Corps' program for services in the
following (5) types of measurable skill gains: educational skill advancement, occupational skill
training, high school diploma services, individualized paid job training, and post -secondary
educational achievement. Each youth enrolled will develop an individual service strategy (ISS)
in direct coordination with an OCCC Program Specialist. The timeline of services will consist of
up to 12 months' direct service. Each participant will also be eligible for 12-months post exit
follow up services. Youth services are designed to overcome significant barriers not otherwise
met within the traditional community assessment of needs. OCCC has extensive history serving
youth participants with severe barriers. Services include but are not limited to: recruitment,
screening, assessment and linkages, case management, ISS, orientation, enrollment, paid job
training, certifications, competitive employment, educational services, supportive services, skill
attainment, and service provisions with individualized target outcomes for each participant.
Corpsmembers approach the program in 4-phases of leadership development. Upon successful
completion of comprehensive service goals, youth experience transformational personal growth,
post -secondary educational gains, and increased wages through competitive employment.
To assist Corpsmembers in overcoming the barriers and complete the WIOA program
successfully, the OCCC Case Manager will identify community partnerships and resources
which are available and can provide appropriate service to the participant, i.e. Anaheim Housing
Authority, Project Kinship (Conviction Sentence Reduction), Volunteers of America,
Department of Child Support Services, OC Head Start (Child Care), Drug and Alcohol treatment
programs, community health care services, Wells Fargo Outreach Team (Financial Literacy),
Anaheim Workforce Center, CaIWORKS, DMV, etc). Support services are critical to help ensure
Corpsmembers are able to obtain and maintain employment post -Corp. These include bus passes,
gas cards, housing assistance, childcare assistance and more. The OCCC program design is
comprehensive and coordinates services for at -risk youth through extensive network of
community partners who provide services as in -kind support.
• Program Specialist will be responsible for coordinating outside support services with
local agencies and community partners
• Meetings with collaborating agencies will be scheduled monthly to review and coordinate
support services with partnering agencies
• Semi-monthly Program Department meetings will include community partner
presentations
The OCCC's Program Specialist, in coordination with the WIOA participant, are mentors to our
youth. Program Specialist will develop the youth's ISS inclusive of assessment results, work
readiness evaluation, ONET and counseling and guidance for personal needs and potential
barriers to success. Case managers will review Individual Educational Plans (IEP), help in
requesting previous transcripts from high schools, and conduct work readiness pre and post-tests.
Corpsmembers receive extensive training in "Green" technologies and projects that address
critical state needs, including natural resources and land management, energy and climate
programs, emergency response and disaster relief, recycling and land diversion programs, and
active transportation development.
3. Population (2 pages max)
87% of youth served at OCCC identify as Hispanic or Latin American (93% identify as a
minority). 85% of youth served qualify for free and reduced lunch, living at or below the
Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Federal Poverty Level. Nearly all youth identify as
being at risk of becoming homeless and/or experienced homeless. This trend continues to rise, as
in 2017-18, 15% of youth entering OCCC programs identified as homeless. Nearly all youth
entering programs live with a disability or a significant barrier
As part of this program, 25 youth will be enroll by December 31, 2019. Our program is directed
to serve youth ages 18-25. The youth served are primarily high school dropouts (out -of -school
youth), who are or have been homeless and/or runaways, have been in foster care, parenting or
pregnant youth, who could have mental or physical challenges, who are court involved, on
probation, on informal probation, and who have incarcerated parents. Aside from the WIOA
Youth eligibility requirements, youth do not need any additional requirements. Depending on a
youth's barrier(s), OCCC may help our youth obtain high school diploma or a copy of their
diploma, a letter from the foster care system, a birth certificate of their child or children, or a
letter from one's health provider stating one's health condition. Otherwise, OCCC does not
require any additional documents for enrollment aside from the WIOA Youth eligibility
requirements.
OCCC has successfully recruited youth into the Santa Ana WIOA program for the past 12 years.
We recently completed 100% enrollment for the 2018-2019 program. OCCC uses a 15-point
approach to recruit youth. OCCC has a full-time recruiter, Brown Faavua, who is actively -
engaged with our community 40 hours a week. Further, OCCC uses several tools specifically
targeted to "opportunity" youth, with a priority for out of school youth. The 15-point approach is
as follows:
1. Collaboration with the Santa Ana WORK center, and other Orange County one -stop
centers. OCCC posts flyers at these locations, and works directly with Evelyn Lenz to
send out the OCCC recruitment flyer throughout her network of organizations.
2. OCCC is active at job fairs throughout the year, include job fairs specifically targeted to
youth through partnerships with Social Services, OCREP, Orangewood, and work
centers.
3. Onsite recruitments with our Family Resource Centers.
4. Social media: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram recruitment postings and engagement.
5. Craigslist and various other career website job postings.
6. Collaboration with the Department of Education, as part of the Career and College
Preparatory Academy, in posting OCCC job recruitments throughout the 22 locations, on
the Department of Education website, and at the OCCC high school campus. Department
of Education teachers and staff also help OCCC in enrolling students in both educational
and workforce training programs.
7. Outreach to previous high school dropouts and youth that stopped the enrollment process
to re-engage in services and follow-up care.
8. Recruitment partnerships throughout our network of various non -profits organizations,
and for -profit organizations, as we are always hiring youth.
9. Presentations directly to Youth Guidance Center (YGC), Social Services Agency (SSA),
and Health Care Agency (FICA), as well as follow up services with case managers,
probation officers, and staff to ensure successful linkage and collaboration of care.
10. Outreach to local high school administrative departments and counselors to successfully
transition traditional high school students who are becoming dropouts into a continuing
educational program such as the on -site charter school, (CCPA) at OCCC.
11.00CC recruitment flyer. We send it out to all of our community partners to let everyone
know we are hiring youth 18-25, immediately.
12. We reserve booths at local Swap meets, flea markets and other local business events to
recruit youth.
1.3. Collaboration with the OCREP in the annual job fair, employment committee, and other
ways to establish working partnerships with the community to provide recruitment.
14. Street signs, walk-ins, word of mouth, and siblings of Corpsmembers.
15. Customer Service and follow-up services.
Customer service is a major part of our recruitment efforts. We so often work with youth who
have experienced significant trauma, experience stigmas, who have been treated poorly by
previous employers within the completive employment market. Anxiety to a new place is often a
major barrier. OCCC wants each person engaged with OCCC to feel comfortable, welcomed and
excited to be joining OCCC. Therefore, we take every extra effort in making each person
entering our facility feel valued. Customer services includes offering a drink and snacks by
intake counselors, taking time to explain the process, and to listen to the applicant's experience.
Our front desk staff including Corpsmembers in professional training positions, as we understand
youth often can relate better and feel more comfortable with youth their own age. We do not
leave anything to chance. If a young person can enroll in the program, qualifies and is an ideal
candidate, there is always going to be significant barrier(s) due to their low-income situation. Not
only do we encourage follow-up calls, but we also call to check in on youth enrollment status.
Our goals is to meet that need by going above and beyond. To meet that person's needs in taking
this step forward. This customer service looks different for everyone entering our building, but
the idea is that we will meet each person where they are in their personal and professional
development.
These 15-points to recruitment have successfully allowed OCCC to continue to meet each
program's enrollment needs. OCCC successfully complete the past 13 years of enrollment with
the Santa Ana WIOA program by developing this model. The OCCC team meets quarterly to
further develop this model, as to always seek to expand our services throughout the community.
This approach will continue to be the model for enrolling all 25 youth into the Santa Ana WIOA
program by the December 31`t, 2019 deadline.
Included in Attachment C is our letter of support from Lorri Guy, Program Manager for the
North Orange County Continuing Education (NOCE) Workability Program. NOCE collaborates
in the care of youth to provide referrals to the OCCC programs. Further, Valerie Brauks, Orange
County Director of Community Services with the Children's Bureau offers an additional letter of
support in referring youth to OCCC programs.
4. Assessment (1 page max)
OCCC programs explicitly meet the needs of youth with significant barriers including low-
income barriers, gang involvement, drug use, and domestic violence, Once a Santa Ana resident
youth (or homeless youth) enters facilities, the screening, assessment and linkages process takes
place with full-time Santa Ana WIOA Program Specialist Mr. Darin Garcia as follows:
1. Prospective participant completes and submits the OCCC application. The Program
Specialist determines eligibility for the Santa Ana WIOA Youth Program.
2. Topics discussed during the assessment process are as follows: eligibility requirements
for program services; what each youth expects upon arrival; an overview of the program
mission; expected resultsioutcomes (employment, obtaining credentials, higher education
attainment) and a description of both the youth's and case managers' responsibilities.
3. During the assessment process, the Program Specialist has the opportunity to discuss
important issues in detail and identify youth's individual goals. Program Specialist
conducts an interview using an OCCC 5-page questionnaire (attached in W-additional
attachments section of RFP) to assesses over 50-points upon entry into programs.
4. Once the youth is deemed eligible to be enrolled in the WIOA youth program,
registration in CalJobs and selective services is verified. If youth is not enrolled in
CalJobs or selective services, Program Specialist assists in registration as necessary. The
youth completes an Individual Service Strategy (ISS); which allows the youth to identify
their interests and goals, skills and abilities and personal characteristics. Youth then
administered the Test for Adult Basic Education (TABE) pre -test in literacy and
numeracy skills.
According to the 2012 Anaheim Youth Services Assessment the term "at risk" is widely used
when referring to youth who may be at risk of "lifelong disadvantage". The assessment found
"youth are at risk due to a number of challenges that have the potential to keep them from
achieving success in their lives. The top four risk outcomes identified through this assessment
process, including poverty, gang activity, school dropout, and drug use". OCCC recruits and
serves to these barriers. OCCC is the type of program needed to help youth overcome these
barriers. OCCC hires homeless youth; OCCC hires youth living in deep poverty; OCCC is
felony -friendly. OCCC provides a safe haven from gang activity and gang -pressure. OCCC
supports youth living with severe mental health, disabilities, addiction(s) and abuse, dual
diagnosis, and other conditions; OCCC graduates youth who have dropped out of traditional K-
12 educational tracks. OCCC reframe barriers as potential strengths, building one's resistance.
OCCC supports youth seeking to escape domestic violence. While OCCC recruitment efforts
target all youth of Santa Ana, the majority of youth entering programs continue to live in Santa
Ana's lowest income, socio-economically restricted neighborhoods, with active gang
recruitment, and drug abuse. OCCC recruits and serves youth with the most significant barriers,
meeting or exceeding the out -of -school recruitment numbers every year over the past 13 years
for the Santa Ana WIOA Youth Program.
OCCC staff provide exceptional customer service to complete the assessment and follow up
tasks. Staff go above and beyond. Supportive services are provided, as needed. Staff transport
and pick up youth, as needed. Youth gain trust of OCCC.
5. Paid & Unpaid Work Experience (3 pages max)
Corpsmembers may remain at the Orange County Conservation Corps for up to two years to
"earn...learn... and serve". This gives them the time necessary to develop the skills to
enter the workforce. OCCC's program provides an opportunity for participants to earn a
living through paid work experience, learn job skills and further their education, while they
serve the public by completing conservation projects and services. Corpsmembers who
determine to work at OCCC work 29 hours per week, Monday through Thursday, and
receive additional training, workshops, mentoring, supportive services and case
management upon returning to the campus at 2:30pm.
As one of 14 local and state certified conservation corps in California, OCCC belongs to a State
association of local conservation corps designated to provide services to our at -risk young adults.
The year-round paid job -training work of Corpsmembers help mitigate changing climate impacts
through fire fuel reduction, flood protection, water quality, reforestation, habitat restoration,
wetlands protection/reparation, wildlife and native species protection, homeless encampment
cleanups, bottle/can, tire, E-waste, and oil recycling. All activities support reduction of Green
House Gas and a lower -carbon footprint. Many underrepresented young people in Orange
County have little to no access to outdoor experiences. This is especially pervasive in the urban
areas we serve, among communities of color and poverty. The mission at OCCC is to preserve
and protect the environment, as well as provide paid job skills training and career technical
education opportunities for young men and women who come from some of the state's most
disenfranchised communities or experience homelessness. Corpsmembers participate in
programs and projects that address critical state needs, including natural resources and land
management, energy and climate programs, emergency response and disaster relief, recycling
and land diversion programs, and active transportation development.
As part of youth training, Participants have the option to be placed at Work Experience Site
(WEX) and On -the -job -training locations through various multi -year partnerships with OCCC.
Our community placement partnership sites including the following sites: Aerofit, Pathways
Group, Heavy Equipment College of California, Associated General Contractors of America —
Apprenticeship (AGC), Working Wardrobes Thrift shop, PA Commercial Construction, Heritage
Museum, Boys & Girls Club of Brea, Yorba Linda & Placentia, Anaheim Independencia FRC,
Community Action Partnership, Monkey Business, Walgreen's — (Santa Ana, Anaheim sites),
CVS — (Santa Ana, Anaheim sites), Moxie Glam, Smart & Final, G.O.A.L.S., Costco, Dad's
Matter Children's Bureau, Crush Studios, Friendly Center, Anaheim Library, Goodwill
Industries, Mesa Cold Storage, Orangethorpe Elementary School, and the Southwest Carpentry
Union, as measured by the worksite manager. WEX sites, offered year round, also lead to the
opportunity for direct hire employment following the completion of the paid job training
experience. Today, several sites continue to employ previous Corpsmembers in WEX who are
now Job Coaches, Managers, Drivers, IT Specialist, Administration Assistants, HR Clerks,
Warehouse staff, and more within that company. Youth training at WEX sites complete a site
agreement, orientation specifically detailing policies, and transitional assistance into competitive
employment. OCCC WEX sites offer paid job training in opportunities that include in -demand
industries identified in the Orange County Regional Plan including Manufacturing (Aerotec site),
Information Technology (Goodwill Industries), Healthcare (Children's Bureau), and
Hospitality/entertainment (Marriot).
We collaborate with the Marriott International serving all of Orange County, in collaboration
with Ms. Karen Kretschmer, Human Resources Market Manager- Orange County to provide
WEX training sites and direct hire within all of the hotels and offices throughout Orange County.
Youth receive training in customer service, front desk operations, hospitality, and stewardship.
Youth then have an opportunity to gain competitive employment following their training with
the Marriot, as well as the Voyage Global Leadership program, including exposure to specialized
training of several functions with our global hotel network. Marriott Hotels includes Four Points,
Fairfield, Residence Inn, Towneplace Suites, and Courtyard.
Corpsmembers also have an opportunity to join paid and volunteer disaster response
assignments, as needed throughout the County and State. Each year certain community needs
arise. Currently, Corpsmembers are completing projects in recently burned areas of north Orange
County devastated by several wildfires. These projects help remove debris and fire fuel, clear
and restore habitat, and require significant teamwork and coordination with the County staff,
City staff, Crew Supervisors, fellow Corpsmembers and community members. Other projects
include building emergency sand bags, removing fire fuel from dangerous areas, and cleaning up
homeless camps from the Santa Ana Riverbed.
Letters of support from the City of Garden Grove's Public Works Facility Manager Ron
Meislahn highlighting the efforts of the paid job -training program youth completed. Further
Michael J. Byrne, Senior Management Analyst from the City of Irvine's Solid Waste and
Recycle Program has provided additional support of the OCCC crews and paid job -training
program. Numerous Corpsmembers have gone on to work for City and County Public positions
related to environmental efforts, public works, and conservation technologies.
OCCC through our on -site partnership with the Orange County Department of Education,
College and Career Preparatory Academy (CCPA) provide STEM training directly to
Corpsmembers. Corpsmembers work in teams or "crews" to develop healthy teamwork skills,
healthy communication skills, all apart of the STEM Workplace Skills found to be needed by
Orange County companies and entrepreneurs (OCSTEM, 2019). Corpsmembers are required to
participate in STEM workshop opportunities to prepare students for college readiness, including
Common Core life skills, healthy communication skills, and to have the ability to solve
problems. CCPA teachers recently completed the following STEM training courses in 2018: (1)
two day training on the new California Social Science Framework and how the adopted social
Science curriculum coincides with the new framework. (2) half -day training on the adopted
English Language Arts curriculum and its online components. (3) staff were trained in the
remedial reading program, MAX Scholar, to meet the needs of our students to improve literacy
skills. (4) three day training on computer use in education. CCPA Principle Dave Conner
provided a letter of support highlighting the partnership with OCCC and CCPA.
Each of the 25 OSY completing programs at OCCC, in collaboration with CCPA, is required to
meet one-on-one with a CCPA instructor to improve skills, with an emphasis on STEM based
practices and training. Each OSY receives a laptop computer to complete coursework,
workshops and STEM based skills. CCPA staff enroll OSY students near completion of their
high school diploma in community college, with an emphasis "Increase staff and student
utilization of technology in instruction and learning as demonstrated by teachers and students
incorporating 21 st Century skills of collaboration, communication, problem -solving, creativity,
and character development into assignments" —Dave Conner, CCPA Principle, Orange County
Department of Education, Division of Alternative Education.
OCCC recognizes another major hurdle to competitive employment in Orange County is a
driver's license, as nearly 80% of youth entering programs do not have a driver's license. This
challenge is especially pervasive for at -risk youth living in low-income neighborhoods. OCCC is
currently developing a 3-year plan to develop urban forestry and arboriculture career
development in partnership with West Coast Arborists, Orange County Department of Education
and the Disneyland Resorts. The project involves tree planting and monitoring within
disadvantaged or severely disadvantaged communities, reduction of Greenhouse gas, career
development and driver's education. If the grant is awarded through Proposition 68, OCCC plans
to provide onsite driver's education to all youth needing a driver's license the OCCC campus.
OCCC offers multiple on -site collaborations with postsecondary institutions, directed at post-
secondary educational certifications. OCCC collaborated with the North Orange County
Regional Consortium for Adult Education (NOCRC), School of Continuing Education, to bring
multiple certification programs to the OCCC campus. These courses included basic computer
skills certification (Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint), Early Childhood classwork,
IT Certification and other courses. NOCRC provide an on -site teacher, and cohorts of 12-20
youth completed certification coursework. OCCC also collaborated with Pomona Fairplex and
the Water training program to provide on -site Water Technician and Water Distribution
California State Certification. OCCC hired an state certified instructor to train cohorts of students
to pass the Water Distribution 1 (D1) and 2 (D2) level testing requirements, as well as the Water
Technician 1 (Tl) and 2 (T2) level certification. The program was also supported by the Orange
County Community Foundation, These efforts led to 21 youth participating in the program,
youth gaining meaningful employment within the water treatment industry. Field site visits were
also taken to various major water treatment facilities throughout the region.
OCCC offers multiple on -site collaborations with pre -apprenticeship programs. Associated
General Contractors of America — Apprenticeship (AGC) completed on -site presentations,
workshops, recruitments, and information session at OCCC. Several Corpsmembers have gone
on to complete Journeyman apprenticeships with AGC. OCCC and CCPA have also collaborated
with Local 441 International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, with the most recent
recruitment taking place at the OCCC campus on 1/31/2019 at 3:30pm to all active
Corpsmembers (flyer attached to Attachment W).
On -site training for Corpsmembers in the conservation paid job training also receive hand tool
training skills certification, 4-phase leadership development, workshops, financial literacy,
incentives for multiple achievements, food and snacks, hydration flasks, uniforms, boots and
safety training skills. Youth receive extensive training in orientation, as part of their on -boarding
to the program. Staff meet Corpsmembers at the start of their first shift to provide additional
support, answer any questions, assist with the time clock, and assist in the assignment of one's
Project Supervisor.
Santa Ana City Council Member Jose Solorio provided a letter of support of OCCC.
6. Alternative Secondary School Services (3 pages max)
The College and Career Preparatory Academy (CCPA) is an affiliate Charter School to the
Orange County Department of Education/Alternative, Community, and Correctional Education
Schools and Services (ACCESS). CCPA provides an educational program for those 18-25 years
of age that have not yet completed a high school diploma. This program serves the targeted
population with an independent -study model of instruction that provides the flexibility and
support to work and participate in career training programs. CCPA supports its students in a way
that focuses on one of the legislative intents in the Charter Schools Act, which is to "increase
learning opportunities for all pupils."
Through collaboration with a variety of partners, CCPA's ability to meet the needs of its diverse
population is strengthened. The most important partnerships are those formulated between
teachers, students, parents, mentors and the community. The dynamics among these groups are
critical to the planning, implementing and design of CCPA. Agency and community partners are
vital to the academic and personal progress, and meaningful learning experiences for CCPA
students. These partnerships provide guest speakers, mentors, field trips, career fairs, job
shadowing, project -based learning experiences, internships and community service opportunities.
CCPA partners with seven agencies through their federally funded workforce programs. Since its
inception, it has impacted the lives of more than 600 young adults by giving them the
opportunity to complete their high school graduation requirements, developing an Individualized
Education Career Service Plan (IECSP), to connecting them with Workforce Innovation and
Opportunity Act (WIOA) partners and the Orange County Conservation Corps, who assist them
in career exploration and guidance, opportunities for skills training in high demand industries,
and leading to a good job along a career pathway or postsecondary education.
CCPA opened its doors in the fall of 2018 at the OCCC educational campus, sub -leasing the
facility. The majority of our students reside in the cities of Anaheim and Santa Ana. The school's
ethnicity breakdown consists of 79 percent Hispanic or Latino, 13 percent white, 2 percent
African -American, 2 percent Asian, 4 percent multi -ethnic, and gender mix is equal. Sixty-seven
percent of our students range in age from 18-20 years old, but also 17 percent of our students are
age 23 and 25. The percentage of students classified as English learners is 38 percent, as low
income is 92 percent.
CCPA teachers have received significant training within STEM and OC STEM, and Common
Core. CCPA provides workshops, one-on-one weekly mentoring, and drop -in study times.
OCCC students receive a personal laptop rental provided by CCPA. Youth can complete
coursework at the campus, with WIFI capacity, or take their laptop computer with them to
complete coursework at home or throughout the community. CCPA on -site staff includes
Principle Dave Conner, who assists day-to-day operations, retention services, and dropout
recovery. CCPA and OCCC collaborate to coordinate services in dropout recovery. Staff
consistently weekly case management meetings, specifically targeting "hotspots" to provide
appropriate interventions in reconnecting youth to services. Hotspots are considered someone at
risk of falling out of services, experience crisis, or other immediate needs. CCPA and OCCC
staff have received significant training in provided support to youth in crisis. OCCC staff have
the ability to go to the OSY to provided interventions. OCCC staff also call youth, providing
mentoring services and counseling support to problem solve issues, provide referrals to address
specific needs, as well as provided supportive services to address further barriers. OCCC staff
provide pick up points at various locations throughout Santa Ana, Anaheim and Buena Park to
help with transportation barriers. OCCC staff link parenting youth to various childcare providers
including Orange County Head Start. OCCC supports mental health issues with directly linking
youth to the Health Care Agency Behavioral Health Services for intakes and assessments. OCCC
refers youth to several domestic violence shelters and hotlines to support young men and woman,
provide psychoeducation regarding the "Cycle of Violence" and the negative effects of violence
in the household on early childhood development. Program Specialist for OCCC's Anaheim
WBD Grant are led by Ms. Veronica Yepez. Ms. Yepez own life experiences include domestic
violence, low-income housing and now she possess the skills to help mentor, guide, and counsel
youth to succeed in completing program outcomes. Ms. Yepez recently was honored as a guest
speaker at the Ruth House of Hope and shared her own survival story from domestic violence.
Ms. Yepez has served youth at OCCC for 8 years. Ms. Yepez also has a Bachelor's of Science in
Accounting. She is a talented and passionate role model for the young adults, especially those
experiencing "hotspots". Ms. Yepez has years of experience in dealing with crisis situations.
OCCC and CCPA provide quarterly back to school celebration events, as all the past students are
given specific information needed to continue their educational goals. Staff BBQ and often hold
icebreaker activities, complete tours and do everything in our power to re-engage youth in
educational and employment programs. OCCC Program Manager Susan Soria often collaborates
with local organizations, as she recently was able to get the radio station 97.1 to host a back to
school event, which was featured on their radio station, and the campus held a friendly staff vs.
Corpsmembers basketball game.
OCCC holds Youth Advisory monthly meetings to address improvement of services, increased
participation of youth in programs, and innovation within the OCCC. Dropout recovery is also
addressed in these advisory meetings, in which OCCC youth present ways to better improve
retention services. OCCC have raised funds to host a "prom" night, which Working Wardrobes
was able to collaborate in donating dresses for the ladies, and suits for the men. The event
provided retention services, providing a lot of excitement for the youth who dropped out of
school and were never able to attend their own prom. The event was ultimately a success, and
featured in the Orange County Register.
The Corps job readiness and workforce preparedness training incorporates the SCANS
Foundation Skills and the development of effective personal qualities:
Basic Skills: Corpsmembers will become competent in reading, writing, mathematics, speaking
and listening.
Thinking Skills: Corpsmembers will develop the ability to think creatively, to learn, to reason,
to make decisions and to solve programs.
Personal Qualities and Leadership Skills: Corpsmembers will develop individual
responsibility, self-esteem, self -management, self-control, stress management, sociability and
integrity through OCCC participation.
OCCC collaborates with the local Universities and Colleges to provide internship opportunities.
Internships include students completing social work hours, organization development, and
counseling psychology. Interns have worked with students in the areas of personal, social -
emotional counseling, group therapy, and crisis intervention. Interns also work on connecting
youth with connecting students with services, as needed.
OCCC Corpsmembers are eligible for AmeriCorps scholarships while completing Crew -based
work at OCCC. Youth who complete 300 hours of paid job training receive a post -secondary
scholarship for $1271. Further youth who complete 450 hours of Crew -based work at OCCC
receive $1542 in a post -secondary scholarship. Once enrolled in college, and youth complete
their first 3- units, youth receive their full AmeriCorps scholarship award(s). Youth can earn up
to (3) AmeriCorps scholarships while working at OCCC, valued at more than $3700 to start
one's post -secondary career.
CCPA hosts an annual Governance Council Network Conference, which CCPA Principle Dave
Conners hosts more than 60 community business leaders, school site administrators, community
college outreach specialist and community leaders to gather in developing education, career
preparation, workforce training, employment and STEM based -best practices. OCDE partner
agencies are encouraged to network with employers to gain a better understand of what our
community needs are today. CCPA youth are referred for services through this consortium.
CCPA and OCCC high school specialize in disability services, including when a student has an
IEP. Special accommodations include one on one tutoring and support. OCCC also
In the past 5 years, OCCC has graduated nearly 450 youth with a California high school diploma.
7. Preparation for Postsecondary Education and Training (3 pages max)
OCCC provides integrated services to "at -risk" or "Opportunity Youth". "Opportunity Youth -
sometimes referred to as "disconnected youth" - are defined as people between the ages of 16
and 24 who are neither in school nor working. As of 2015, there are approximately 5.8 million
young Americans [1 in 6 youth] who meet the definition of Opportunity Youth" (Bridgeland and
Milano, 2012). Further, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) found adults under age 24 are the fastest growing segment of people experiencing
homelessness, and may be at greater risk of homelessness than any other age group. In 2014,
34% of people experiencing homelessness were under age 24, according to Housing and Urban
Development (HUD, 2012) report. SAMSHA further reports Opportunity Youth are "failing to
build an economic foundation for adult independence".
In these 25 years, OCCC has provided paid job training program support to over 8,500
Corpsmembers by instilling a strong work ethic, developing an individual's self-worth, while
providing the necessary experience and job skills to ensure that our young adults become
successful candidates in the workforce. Corpsmembers receive an education, learn professional
job skills, take critical steps forward to become an employed and self-sufficient adult; an asset
within their families, as asset within their community, an asset for all of California.
The Santa Ana WIOA Participant will have the opportunity to earn several certificates of
completion and/or accomplishments such as: California high school diploma/GED, Americorps
Educational Award(s), Forklift, Chainsaw, Red Cross CPR/First Aid, Safe Serve Food Handlers,
California State Guard Card, OSHA-10 hour (emphasized for Construction), and other job
training readiness certifications. Each certification is individualized to advance each Participants
progress towards their IEP and ISSP overall goals.
The OCCC organizational purpose is to empower young adults to become self-sufficient
members of their community. The Corps accomplishes this by offering activities and organized
instruction targeted toward the educational, professional, and personal development of youth.
Some of the common and additional measures to be utilized to evaluate the success of this
program will be as follows:
• Participants who are unemployed and out of school will become enrolled at the Corps and
will successfully complete the OCCC paid work experience assignment, as measured by
the Corps Crew Supervisor's work ledger. The work of OCCC's Corpsmembers help
mitigate changing climate impacts through fire fuel reduction, flood protection, water
quality, reforestation, habitat restoration, wetlands protection/reparation, wildlife and
native species protection, homeless encampment cleanups, bottle/can, tire, E-waste, and
oil recycling. All activities support reduction of Green House Gas and a lower -carbon
footprint.
• Participants enrolled in the CCPA school will earn their high school diploma and will
successfully co -enroll in post -secondary education as they get close to graduation, as
measured by classroom instructors teaching records
• Participants will successfully acquire "soft" and "hard" occupational skills training
needed to complete their assigned work projects (i.e. disaster response, habitat
restoration, construction, recycling, conservation projects, trail building), as measured by
the WIOA Program Specialist and the Corps Crew Supervisor's evaluation records.
• Participants will successfully improve their basic skills and improve at least two grade
levels on a standardized test, as measured by TABE tests and instructor records.
• Participants will successfully participate in multiple work and educational leadership
experiences, as measured by a list of guest speakers, workshops, field trips, instructor's
daily planning, and youth's portfolio.
• Participants will successfully apply for and received scholarships for post -secondary
instruction, as measured by scholarship awards, post -secondary enrollment.
• Participants will successfully demonstrate leadership skills through various crew -based,
peer to peer based, and team -based activities, as measured by Crew Supervisor and
Program Specialist evaluation notes.
• Participants will successfully complete college preparation/financial aid/ apprenticeship
training, College enrollment workshops, as measured by Program Specialist evaluation
notes.
Post -secondary educational opportunities/activities which will be offered to WIOA participants
also include:
• Earning credits towards and completing their high school diploma
• Earning scholarships for post -secondary opportunities
• Remediation of basic skills and individual tutoring in academic subjects needed
• Accompanying youth to make personal introduction and/or visits to individual
offices/departments, community colleges, trade schools, universities
• Completing financial aid packages, waivers, grants
• On -site Social Workers to work with students in the areas of personal, social -emotional
counseling which is greatly needed at our school site.
As we approach each OSY personal and professional development from a strength's based
individual assessment, OCCC must be able to meet each person where they are in their
development. Therefore, we have built an extensive network of partnerships within the Orange
County post -secondary educational community, as mentioned in previous sections. Our years of
experience have found that there are hundreds of career pathways that lead to a livable wage. We
are often working with high school dropouts, and significant amount of time is taken to complete
one's high school diploma and graduate. As we get close to graduation, our goal at OCCC is to
provide co -concurring enrollment at the community college level. Our team helps with every
step along the way to enroll a person in college, including taking tours and completing
documents at the campus. FAFSA often requires parent taxes, or a waiver, which OCCC staff
assist OSY in completing the entire process. Then our goal is to graduate high school, enroll in
the counseling course at the local community college, pick a career pathway, and begin taking
general education classes, earn credits, and find one's personal passion. Follow up services we
continue to support youth in completing our first classes, enrolling in additional coursework, and
helping with additional resources, crisis interventions, supportive services, ongoing emotional
mentoring, as well as other follow up services.
OCCC have worked in collaboration with the Santa Ana, Fullerton, Cypress, Golden West,
Rancho Santiago, and other Community Colleges to support youth in the enrollment of the
community college process. We also help youth understand all the specialized training at the
community colleges including programs like the Nursing programs, HVAC, Auto -mechanical,
and so many other programs, as these are career pathways to a livable wage in Orange County.
Another critical tool used at our campus is the benefit of an education. These numbers are
highlighted at the campus: "College graduates, on average, earned 56% more than high school
grads in 2015, according to data compiled by the Economic Policy Institute. That was up from
51 % in 1999 and is the largest such gap in EPI's figures dating to 1973. Since the Great
Recession ended in 2009, college -educated workers have captured most of the new jobs and
enjoyed pay gains. Non -college grads, by contrast, have faced dwindling job opportunities and
an overall 3% decline in income, EPI's data shows."
The OCCC Leadership and Development Team focuses on further skills acquisition. Each youth
completes 4-phases of their development, ranked according to leadership components: work
readiness, certifications, high school diploma, attendance rate, disciplinary write-ups,
S.M.A.R.T. goal attainment, leadership activities engaged in at OCCC, and performance
reviews. Each phase is represented by a belt, orange, green, silver and black. Team sports,
including basketball and soccer tournaments, all-star games, staff vs. student games, and games
against local area Conservation Corps are included in this, "phases process." Youth are
encouraged to participate in team activities to bring out the best in their social, emotional, and
physical wellness. Annual picnics, holiday party meals, family Christmas and Thanksgiving
meals allow for Corpsmember appreciation events, recognition for achievement, and phase
advancement.
The Laguna Canyon Foundation's Executive Director Hallie Jones has provided a letter of Intent
to continue support including educational training for Corpsmembers in conservation,
environmental stewardship, and habitat restoration. OCCC and The Laguna Canyon Foundation
complete several extensive training programs a year for youth in programs, followed by hands on
training in habitat restoration, trail restoration, and natural science (erosion, water science, native
vs non-native).
Josh Volp, Director of Operations, has served OCCC for 19 years. In those years, Josh has nearly
seen it all. "Crews" of Corpsmembers are assigned to individual Crew Supervisors, and many of
the Crew Supervisors were once Corpsmembers. Josh rewards strong work ethic, and often hires
Corpsmembers who show strong leadership, initiative, and drive. Josh takes pride in a job done
right, which is the culture within OCCC. Project Supervisors, who have graduated from the
OCCC program and gained competitive employment at OCCC, often provided additional support
and training to Corpsmembers because they have lived experience. They provide peer to peer
services that allow more compassion, understanding, empathy, and ability to overcome barriers.
Nearly all of the Program Supervisors are previous Corpsmembers. This level of peer to peer is a
pillar and driving force in the recovery model in supporting people with disabilities, as nearly all
Corpsmembers entering programs live with a disability.
8. Tutoring (1 page max)
Santa Ana OSY will receive tutoring from The College and Career Preparatory Academy (CCPA)
on a weekly basis one hour per week with a CCPA teacher. OSY and CCPA will review the
weeks progress in coursework, answer questions, explain topics, provide feedback on test scores
and results, teach STEM based fundamentals of Common Core, develop a safe and trusting
relationship, and ultimately lead to completion of each course. Tutoring will improve TABE
literacy and numeracy skills from pre to post test. CCPA facilities also have the ability to provide
additional support in tutoring through use of software programs. At times, these programs are
able to meet certain grade level numeracy development goals. For example the computer lab has
a mathematics program that provide visual queues rather than word problems to develop basic 4-
5th grade numeracy skills. Further, when accommodations are needed due to Individualized
Educational Plans (IEP), CCPA teachers are able to accommodate those needs based on the
specific plans in the IEP.
Program Specialist will also provide tutoring services for OSY considered below "basic skills
deficient". One-on-one tutoring is available at both the campus and OCCC headquarters in a
private room, conference room, or at the computer labs, based on the OSY preference. Program
Specialist also have the ability to tutor youth off -site at a location more preferable to the youth.
9. Mentoring (1 page max)
OCCC has provided mentoring services for 25 years. OCCC Program Specialist, OCCC Project
Supervisors, all CCYS staff, and OCCC administrative staff have all taken on mentorship roles.
OCCC has built a strong network of community partnerships to address challenges, crisis, and
barriers each youth face. OCCC case managers and staff have helped the most difficult cases, the
most challenging, heartbreaking, and tenacious participants at OCCC. We approach each case
individually, understanding that life's struggles will happen while in the program, yet challenge
our youth to give us their best. At OCCC we hold each participant accountable. We seek, and
expect the absolute best out of our youth. We challenge our youth to take pride in the work they
complete.
Homelessness is a significant burden to our youth. We often recognize one's strength of
resilience to build on their self-esteem if they are completing a program while living on the
streets. It is an incredible accomplishment. To address this need, in 2018 we started partnering
with Citynet, in collaboration with the City of Anaheim, Mercy House, and the Health Care
Agency to link our homeless youth to services. Through the Orange County 211 referral system,
a VSPDAT can be completed and we can link them to additional support in the community. We
have successfully linked youth to supported housing programs, as well as transitional and
emergency housing programs. We rely on the Fullerton and Santa Ana Armory in the cold
seasons for emergency shelter. We also refer to shelters, as a few more have opened in the past 6
months. We have had housing programs present at all staff meetings as well.
Mental health issues and homelessness are often tied closely together. Our staff have received
mental health first aid training, and continue to support youth in connecting to the Health Care
Agency for mental health services. The health care agency and probation departments also
provide referrals to youth in recovery services, as OCCC is willing to support youth with
multiple barriers. OCCC staff have taken and sat with youth through initial intakes at the mental
health clinics, as there can often be significant stigma attached to the initial meeting with a
mental health professional. We also bring mental health providers onsite to present and help.
OCCC partners with the Department of Child Support Services to assist young men and women
with custody issues, child support issues, and other significant barriers facing a young adult.
Substance abuse is a major coping strategy among at risk youth. In the past we have hosted AA
meetings onsite, referred directly to Drug and Alcohol treatment programs, NA meetings, and
Co-occurring support with the health care Agency. Often times youth are in significant denial,
not understanding the risk they are in if they continue to use. We provide psychoeducation using
our own lived experiences, as well as the leadership of our youth who are in recovery. OCCC
Corpsmember of the Year in 2017 entered the program homeless and drinking daily. Through his
recovery, he was often able to speak directly to our youth in crisis about his own recovery.
Because youth spend 6-9 hours a day in a healthy program, they often become their own mentors
and friends. At times they will also reach out to staff to alert when someone may be at risk, and
further interventions are provided by OCCC staff.
Domestic violence and gang violence is another major barrier. We've created a safe haven from
that life-style. We offer a large network of community resources. We challenge youth to change.
IO.Workshops (2 pages max)
Wells Fargo Representative Joey Hernandez provides intensive financial literacy through our
multi -year partnership. Wells Fargo outreach team offers multiple topic -specific workshops
(establishing credit, buying your first car, opening a banking account, starting your own
business, interest rates, overdraft fees). We offer a financial incentive for opening a bank
account, often inviting several local banks to the campus to help teach youth the benefits of a
bank account. As we understand at -risk youth are extremely vulnerable to financial predators,
over the years we have established a deep trust in our financial partnerships to ensure youth
receive concrete information from trusted people in financial literacy, and that we have a
working relationship for our youth. Workshops are provided on a monthly and at times quarterly
basis, depending on Wells Fargo availability.
OCCC teaches the Corps to Career workshop series, including workshops on owning your own
business. If there is one thing that is clear, youth are extremely resourceful. Many young adults
know how to run their own business, yet lack some of the fundamental skills needed to maintain
a healthy business over the years. The Corps to Career workshop on Entrepreneur skill training
focuses on the "soft" and "hard" skills needed to be your own boss. Corps to Career workshops
cycle through a gamut of topics throughout the series before restarting again.
OCCC reiterates the fundamental point that education leads to increased wages. This point starts
at orientation, and continues throughout one's time at OCCC in various Corps to Career
workshops. Orange County's livable wage is increasingly going higher and higher into the mid
20's, and therefore information regarding labor markets that pay well above the livable wage,
especially the markets within the high demand industries (Construction, health care, IT,
hospitality/entertainment) are emphasized. Apprenticeship workshops are also given on a
quarterly basis.
Parenting classes, family planning, as well as long term financial planning, are a part of the
ongoing partnership with Dad's Matter with the Children's Bureau. These workshops and
services are available on an on -going basis. OCCC also has a 6-series parenting class with
Working Wardrobes, which ends with a fashion show in which all of the women get to attend,
dress up, get their hair done, and be a part of a special event with the community. This class
addresses safe sex, safe relationships, family planning, self-esteem, and personal self-worth.
Worker's Rights/Labor Laws are completed in OCCC program orientation, completed every two
weeks, for multiple hours per session, including a post-test and copies of one's rights, the laws,
signed for both Corpsmembers and the organization. OCCC also often has guest workshops with
various agencies which touch on these topics including Goodwill of Orange County Human
Services presentation from Rhonda Garcia. Rhonda often presents an HR perspective as well as
an employer's rights perspective to teach youth how to approach interactions with Human
Resources.
OCCC also facilitates monthly guest speakers to present on various topics including health,
wellness, careers, colleges, and much more. For example, Planned Parenthood is scheduled for
February to present to the entire youth body regarding health resources. In the past Human
Options has completed domestic violence presentations to the entire youth, which have created
intense reactions from our youth who have experience sexual assaults, domestic violence assault,
as well as challenged the culture of abuse within some low-income communities. These
workshops often feature healthy options including creating a safety plan, getting help and getting
out of an abusive relationship. These workshops are presented on a quarterly rotation, as the
organization is available to present.
The Corps to Career workshop series goes into significant depth about personal and professional
development. Topics covered include attitude, safety, communication, initiative, cooperation,
appearance, work quality vs. quantity, attendance, personal accountability, work ethic, work
readiness, leadership skills, disability awareness, volunteering in the community, responsibility,
career pathways, certifications, post -secondary education, civic engagement, community.
Throughout all of these workshops, analytical skills at the workplace are presented at various
topics. Youth are also encouraged to participate in volunteer opportunities throughout various
OCCC partnerships to further their development, and achieve leadership skills as part of the
Corps to Career model. OCCC also host guest speakers who have significant barriers and
disabilities, to provide a common ground of resilience and hope. To show that people in very
tough situations can overcome anything, achieve anything they set forth in accomplishing, and
motivate our young adults to become leaders of tomorrow.
11. Civic Engagement or Leadership Development (2 pages max)
The OCCC Leadership and Development Team focuses on further skills acquisition of each
Corpsmember in the program. Every Corpsmember starts with an orange belt at Orientation.
Each youth completes 4-phases of their development, ranked according to leadership
components: work readiness, certifications, high school diploma, attendance rate, disciplinary
write-ups, S.M.A.R.T. goal attainment, leadership activities engaged in at OCCC, and
performance reviews. Each phase is represented by a belt, orange, green, silver and black, with
black belt representing the highest level of personal and professional development. Social events,
team sports, family events and participation including basketball and soccer tournaments, all-star
games, staff vs. student games, and trivia games are included in this, "phases process." Youth are
encouraged to participate in team activities to bring out the best in their social, emotional, and
physical wellness. Annual picnics, holiday party meals, family Christmas and Thanksgiving
meals allow for Corpsmember appreciation events, recognition for achievement, and phase
advancement.
Each phase of leadership and development takes on new challenges. Program Specialist, CCPA
teaching staff, Project Managers and Leadership and Development Program Manager all work
together to support a youth's development through his time at the Corps. The second phase,
"Green belt" includes 30 days of perfect attendance, which is also an incentive goal, a good work
and performance evaluation, and personal growth & development, as determined by staff
engaged with the Corpsmember. The green belt also requires completion of workshops,
leadership development with your program specialist, and work readiness components.
The third phase of the program, the "silver belt" includes an additional 30 days of perfect
attendance, good work and performance evaluation, personal growth and development (physical,
mental, educational), completion of a State Recognized Certification, multiple Corps to Career
workshops leading to the development of a personal portfolio, and additional career and post-
secondary workshops. Additional financial literacy gains, and additional leadership development
are also required. The final belt, the `Black" belt requires an additional 30 days of perfect
attendance, good work and performance evaluation, personal growth and development (physical,
mental, educational), completion of one's personal portfolio and additional competitive
employment workshops to prepare for interviews and competitive employment. All youth
participate in the leadership and development.
OCCC also participates in civic engagement. On election day, and leading up to election day,
special efforts are made to educate youth on the civic duties one possess as an adult, informing
youth on local and national voting rights, where to vote, as well as allowing television time to
follow the day's election news. All Corpsmembers participate in these election days.
Another civic engagement OCCC creates is flying a group of 2-4 Corpsmembers to Sacramento
to meet with the other 14 Conservation Corps and tour the State Capital, meet with legislators,
compete in educational activities, often meet with the Governor and other legislative leaders and
policy advisors shaping California, and allow for dialogue between Corpsmember and one's
representative.
12. Supportive Services (I page max) O. Will your organization provide supportive services to
youth such as gas cards, bus pass, childcare assistance, etc.? If so, please describe.
OCCC provides supportive services to youth, including gas cards, monthly bus passes, housing
support, childcare assistance. Supportive Services comply with W.I.A. Regulations: 663.805:

balanced budget.
A. Code of Conduct
No employee, officer, or agent of OCCC shall participate in the selection or in the award or
administration of any procurement if a conflict of interest, real or apparent, would be involved.
Such a conflict could arise if the employee, officer, or agent; any member of his/her immediate
family; his/her partner; or an organization which employs or is about to employ any of the above
has a financial or other interest in the firm selected for award.
No officer, employee, or agent of OCCC shall solicit or accept gratuities, favors, or anything of
monetary values from contractors, potential contractors, or parties to sub -agreements, except
where the financial interest is not substantial or the gift is an unsolicited item of nominal intrinsic
value.

Officer. Where violations appear to have occurred, the offending employee, officer or agent
shall be subject to disciplinary action, including but not limited to: dismissal or transfer; when
violations or infractions appear to be substantial in nature, the matter may be referred to
appropriate officials for criminal investigation and possible prosecution.
B. Procurement Procedures
The officer, employee or agent responsible for procurement of services, supplies, equipment,
prepaid cards or construction shall review all proposed procurement actions to avoid the
purchase of unnecessary or duplicative items.
All services and items will be purchased with consideration of these priorities:

2. Cash -on -hand status
3. Features and quality of the item
4. Willingness to meet billing, delivery, and service needs.
5. Minority or Woman -owned supplier.
6. Ability of vendor to support the Mission of the OCCC.
ORANGE COUNTY
CONSERVATION CORPS
Services and items less than $500:
Comparisons of prices, quality, and features can be made by visit, telephone, or by consulting
advertisements and catalogues (including the Internet). All purchases must be made within
budget guidelines. Written authorization (purchase request approval) and sales receipt
confirming payment must be kept on file.
Services and items (including prepaid cards) costing less than $500 (routine purchases):
a) A designated staff member shall identify two or three vendors who offer discount or
competitively priced supplies. Staff shall routinely "shop" those vendors, looking for the
best overall price on each order — though not necessarily on an item -by -item basis.

the area offer the most competitive prices.
b) Nothing in the paragraph above shall prevent staff from taking advantage of lower prices
from other vendors whenever better prices are available.
c) When possible, staff shall attempt to negotiate discounts for large volume purchases,
and should inquire about discounts for paying cash.
d) All purchases must be made within budget guidelines. Written authorization and sales
receipt confirming payment must be kept on file.
Services and items (including prepaid cards) costing more than $500 (infrequent purchases):
a) A designated staff member shall obtain written quotes, interviewing, screening or
advertisements from three vendors whenever possible. Notation of the process should
be documented. Purchase decisions shall be made on the basis of the most
advantageous purchase for OCCC, based on the above priorities.
b) Nothing in the paragraph above shall prevent staff from taking advantage of lower prices
from other vendors whenever better prices are available.
c) When possible, staff shall attempt to negotiate discounts for large volume purchases,
and should inquire about discounts for paying cash.
d) All purchases must be made within budget guidelines. Written authorization and sales
receipt confirming payment must be kept on file.
Sole Source Procurement
The use of a sole source supplier is discouraged, and requires authorization of the Chief
Financial Officer or Chief Executive Officer. Requests for sole source procurement must include
the reason for the lack of competitive information and justification for the selection.
C. Authorization
a) Staff Authorization: The Chief Executive Officer may, at his or her discretion, give one or
more staff members purchase authority for purchases.
b) Funds for all purchases must appear in the current board -approved budget.
D. Unauthorized Purchases
ORANGE COUNTY
CONSERVATION CORPS
The purchase of supplies for personal use is prohibited, as in any purchase made without the
approval of a staff member having purchase authority. In addition to being subject to
disciplinary action under the personnel policy and any remedies available under the law, an
unauthorized purchaser will be held personally liable for the cost of the unauthorized purchase.

B. Criminal Complaints
In accordance with the WIOA and the implementing code of Federal section 667.600....
Federal handling of criminal complaints and report fraud, abuse and other criminal
activity. "All information and complaints involving fraud, abuse or other criminal activity
shall be reported directly and immediately to the City of Santa Ana and the Secretary of
Labor."
II. General Procedures for Handling Non -Criminal Violations of the Act
The following procedure is promulgated to meet the requirements of Title 20, of the Code of
Federal Regulations, Section 186 through 188 of the WIOA regulations, and Section 181 of the
Act (Public Law 105.200: 29 U.S. Code Sec. 2931 et seq.) at the State and LWDA level for the
receipt, investigation, hearing, and resolution of complaints by WIOA participants, sub
EXHIBIT C
recipients, applicants for participation, or financial assistance, labor unions, community based
organizations, or any other persons.
These procedures provide for resolution of non -criminal complaints arising from the operation of
the Santa Ana LWDA.
A complaint is defined here as a written expression by a party alleging a violation of the Act,
regulations promulgated under the Act, recipient grants, sub agreements, or other specific
agreements under the Act, including terms and conditions of employment of such participants in
employment training programs. All complaints, amendments and withdrawals shall be in
writing. These procedures are intended to resolve matters which concern policies, procedures
or action(s) arising in connection with WIOA programs operated by each LWDA grant recipient
and sub recipient under the Act.
These procedures shall not be construed as affecting any other available legal remedy outside
of the WIOA complaint process (i.e., disputes regarding terms and conditions of employment of
any employee who is not a participant), either separately or simultaneously, that a person may
wish to pursue in the resolution of a non-WIOA complaint. Also, these procedures do not
restrict the LWDA grant recipient staff in carrying out informal discussion
Procedures do not restrict the LWDA grant recipient staff in carrying out informal discussion and
resolution of any problems outside of and without resort to the formal complaint procedure.
A. The following principles and rules apply to all complaints at all steps of the complaint
procedures:
All complaints must be made in writing within 180 days of the alleged occurrence,
except complaints alleging fraud or criminal activity.
All persons filing a complaint shall be free from restraint, coercion, reprisal, or
discrimination. Good faith efforts shall be made to informally resolve the complaint
prior to the scheduled hearing. Complainants have the right to withdraw their
complaints (in writing) at any time prior to the hearing. A complainant may amend
his/her complaint to correct technical deficiencies but not to add issues.
3. Complainants shall have the right to be represented at their own expense by
person(s) of their choosing at all levels of the complaint process.
4. Upon enrollment into employment or training, participants shall be provided with a
written description of these procedures, including notification of their right to file
complaints and instructions for filing.
An employer of participants, including private -for -profit employers of participants, may
use this or other complaint resolution procedures so long as the participant is
informed of the complaint resolution procedure they are to follow and the time frames
governing review of complaints are met.
EXHIBIT C
A "participant", within the meaning of these procedures, is an individual who receives
employment -training services under a program funded by Santa Ana LWDA. The
Complaint Resolution Procedures contained herein (or the alternative procedures
which an employer may use) shall be available to participants to resolve disputes
regarding items and conditions of employment of such participants in employment
training programs. However, such procedures shall not be used to resolve disputes
regarding terms and conditions of employment of any employee who is not a
participant, as defined herein.
If a complaint does not receive a decision at the LWDA grant recipient level within 60
days of filing the complaint or receives an unsatisfactory decision, the complainant
then has a right to request a review of the complaint by the Governor.
Complainants must initially file and exhaust LWDA grant recipient/hearing procedures
prior to appealing to the State except where the State determines that the LWDA
grant recipient's procedures are not in compliance with the State's procedures.
III. Procedures for Handling Complaints at the LWDA Level
A. Receipt Complaints
Pursuant to the WIOA regulations found at 20 CFR, Section 683.600, the LWDA
administrative entities have the responsibility to conduct hearings and resolve complaints
made by individuals about the administration of programs in the LWDA. "LWDA level"
encompasses LWDA administrative entity and employers to which the administrative entity
has delegated the complaint resolution process. The following comprise the guidelines for
resolving issues arising in connection with WIOA programs operated by the Santa Ana
LWDA including resolutions of complaints arising from actions, such as audit disallowances
or the imposition of sanctions taken by the Governor with respect to audit findings,
investigations or monitoring reports.
1. Form and Filing of Compliant
Official filing date of the compliant is the date the written complaint is received. The filing
of the complaint with the Santa Ana LWDA Equal Employment Opportunity Officer shall
be considered as a request for hearing and a decision must be issued within 60 days.
The complaint must be in writing and must be signed and dated. The complaint should
also contain the following information:
a. Full name, telephone number, if any, and mailing address of the complainant;
b. Full name, telephone number, and mailing address of the agency involved (respondent);
c. Clear and concise statement of facts including dates constituting alleged violation;
d. What provisions under the Act, regulations, grant or other agreements under the Act, are
believed to have been violated;
EXHIBIT C
e. Remedy sought by the complainant; and
f. If the complainant is a private or public entity or corporation, and not a natural person,
the filing of the complaint must be duly authorized by the governing body of such entity
or corporation.
The absence of any of the requested information shall not be a basis for dismissing the
complaint.
A copy of the complaint must be sent to the respondent and both parties notified of the
opportunity for an informal resolution. At each step of the complaint process, the complainant
must be notified in writing of the next procedural step.
2. Informal Conference
Informal conferences will be utilized by the Santa Ana LWDA to resolve complaints;
however, such informal conferences shall not extend the time within which a decision
must be issued after receipt of a complaint. Attempts at informal resolution will
commence with two (2) weeks of the date of filing of the complaint.
a. The EEO Officer will review the case and ascertain facts prior to the conference so that
appropriate resolution can take place at the time of this meeting whenever possible.
b. Although the complainant should be encouraged to attend this conference, his/her failure
to do so should not preclude his/her right to request a hearing on the matter.
c. If mutually satisfactory resolution results and the Santa Ana LWDA concurs, the EEO
Officer will write a brief report for the file stating the issues and resolution. The matter
shall then be considered closed.
d. If resolution does not result, the complainant shall be provided the necessary information
and assistance to request a hearing if he/she so desires.
3. Request for Hearing
a. As in the case of the complaint, the request for a hearing should be put in writing and
be filed in person or by mail. A governing board resolution of authorization to appeal
should also be submitted when appropriate. The request should be filled with:
Jennifer Sommers
Sr. Personnel Analyst — EEO Officer
20 Civic Center Drive, M-24
Santa Ana, CA 92701
(714)647-5348
EXHIBIT C
b. A hearing will be scheduled by the EEO Officer within thirty (30) days of the date of
filing of the complaint.
4. Notice of Hearing
Upon receipt of the request for hearing, the complainant and the respondent will be
notified in writing of the hearing ten (10) calendar days prior to the date of the hearing.
The ten-day notice may be shortened with the written consent of the parties. A decision
will be issued by the Santa Ana LWDA within sixty (60) days of the date of filing of the
complaint.
The hearing notice shall be in writing and contain the following information:
a. The date of notice, name of the complainant, and the name of the party against whom
the complaint is filed.
b. The date, time and place of hearing before an impartial hearing officer.
c. A statement(s) of the alleged violation(s)
d. Advise as to where information or assistance may be obtained, and the name, address,
and telephone number of the Santa Ana LWDA Equal Employment Opportunities (EEO)
Officer who can answer inquiries.
B. Conduct of Hearing
The hearing shall be conducted in an informal manner with strict rules of evidence not
applicable. Unnecessary technicalities should be avoided. It should provide the flexibility to
enable adjustment to the circumstances presented.
The hearing officer shall have complete independence to obtain facts and make
decisions. The hearing officer shall be in a position to render impartial decisions and
thus should not be subordinate to the Santa Ana LWDA or its sub recipients. The
hearing officer will be selected from a list of names on file with the EEO Officer.
Full regard must be given to the requirements of due process to insure a fair and
impartial hearing.
3. The hearing office designated by the EEO Officer to function in a quasi-judicial capacity
should begin the hearing by summarizing the record and the issue and should explain
the manner in which the hearing will be conducted, making sure that everyone involved
understands the proceedings. Such explanations should be adapted to the needs of the
specific situation. The hearing officer might take testimony under oath or affirmation to
give some assurance of veracity to the hearing.
io
EXHIBIT C
4. The burden of proof should be reasonable and flexible, dependent upon the
circumstances of the case involved. The hearing officer determines the order of proof.
Generally, the party making the complaint has the obligation of establishing his or her
case and should be examined first.
5. The party involved should have the right to be represented (at their own expense)
he/she so desires. Other he/she is limited to his/her own abilities and those to the
hearing officer in obtaining testimony in the case.
6. It is important that the hearing officer obtain the fullest information for the record. If the
parties involved, or their representatives, do not know how to ask the right or pertinent
questions in pursuing their right to due process, it shall be necessary for the hearing
officer to step in to have all the materials and relevant facts elicited.
7. The practice in informal hearings is generally not to apply strict rules of evidence in
obtaining facts. However, the quantity of evidence required to support a decision on an
issue should be sufficiently credible that the state (or other appropriate agency), upon
reviewing the decision, would conclude that the decision is supported by substantial
evidence.
8. The hearing officer should attempt to negotiate a resolution of the issue at anytime prior
to the conclusion of the hearing.
Within ten (10) days of the conclusion of the hearing, the hearing officer will issue a
recommended decision to the LWDA for final determination. The recommended decision
shall be in writing and may be accepted, rejected or modified by the Santa Ana
Workforce Development Board.
C. Issuance of Decision
Within sixty (60) calendar days of filing of the complaint, the Santa Ana LWDA shall issue a
written decision to all parties by first class mail. The final decision shall contain the following
information:
1. The name of the parties involved.
2. A statement of the alleged violation and issues related to the alleged violation.
3. A statement of the facts.
4. The decision and the reasons for the decision.
5. A statement of corrective action, if any, to be taken.
6. Notice of the right to request, within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of the decision, a
review of the decision by the State Review Panel.
11
EXHIBIT C
D. Record of Hearing
An administrative file containing support documents on the complaint resolution process
hearing conducted will be retained by the Santa Ana LWDA. The purpose of a record is to
serve as substantiation of the process followed by the Santa Ana LWDA on the resolution of
the issues and the results. This information would then be available for subsequent review
in the event the matter is raised with the State. Such records must be retained for a three-
year period after the grant has been officially closed out.
The Santa Ana LWDA's written decision will be included in the record. Evidence received at
the hearing, notes by the hearing officer, stenographer's notes and tape recordings may
also be used.
E. Establishment of Complaint Procedures
In accordance with Section 683.600, each employing agency including private -for -profit
employers of participants under the Act is required to establish a complaint procedure for
resolving matters relating to the terms and conditions of employment. Employers may
operate their own grievance system or may utilize the Santa Ana LWIDA's established
procedures under Section 683.600. At a minimum these procedures must include:
Written notice, upon enrollment into employment training services, of the scope and
availability of such procedures. Employer's grievance procedures shall be set forth in a
written document and must meet the regulation mandate that a complaint will be
resolved with sixty (60) days from the date the complaint was filed. A copy of employer's
grievance procedure shall be provided to each participant upon enrollment in
employment training.
Written notice, at the time the grievance is filed, of the procedures under which the
grievance will be processed.
Written notification of the disposition of the grievance and a written decision shall be
issued within thirty (30) days of the filing of the grievance unless a present and long
established grievance specifically provides other limits; and
4. Written notification of the participant's right to request a review of the employer's
decision by the Santa Ana LWDA and the State Review Panel in accordance with
Section 683.600.

the Governor to establish a State Review process of complaints filed at the LWDA grant
recipient level and of complaints initially filed at the State level.
Appeals of decisions issued at the LWDA level including audit disallowances and sanctions
shall be reviewed by the State Review Panel. The State Review Panel shall review the record
12
established at the LWDA level and shall issue a decision based on the information contained
therein.
Complaints which may be initially filed at the State level will be heard by an independent
hearing officer designated by the State Workforce Investment Division (WID). The hearing
officer shall conduct a hearing and issue a recommended decision to the State Panel. The
recommended decision shall be in writing and may be accepted, rejected or modified by the
State Review Panel.
