DISCUSSION
Under the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), the Santa Ana Workforce
Investment Board (WIB) and its Youth Council are required to procure and
make funding recommendations in order to provide required WIA services to
local qualified youth. The Santa Ana City Council approved the initial
youth service provider contracts at its November 17, 2003, meeting
utilizing the 2003-04 WIA grant allocation. Services provided to the
youth include comprehensive education and employment preparation services
for In-School and Out-of-School youth who are Santa Ana residents between
the ages of 16 and 21.
On May 27, 2004, the Santa Ana Youth Council recommended approval of the
2004-05 distribution of the WIA youth funds to the current service
providers. This was approved by City Council on July 19, 2004. The
Santa Ana Youth Council's current recommendation is to provide bridge
funds through September 30, 2005, so that services to youth may continue
during the next procurement process. These funds were among the funds
unallocated in PY 2004-05. This recommendation was approved by the Santa
Ana Workforce Investment Board on June 24, 2005. Extending these
contracts will allow the service providers and the service navigator to
continue providing comprehensive education and employment preparation
services to local youth as stipulated in the WIA and ensures a
continuation of services to those youth currently enrolled.
