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. On June 24, 2005, the Santa Ana WIB authorized
the Youth Council to release a new Request for Proposal seeking providers
of youth services for the period of October 1, 2005, through June 30,
2006, utilizing Program Year 2005-06 WIA youth funds. The current
procurement procedures allow for contracts to be extended for three
consecutive years and then require new procurement efforts be implemented
in order to ensure all interested local agencies serving youth have an
opportuni ty to participate in the process. The process was completed
August 19, 2005, and the Santa Ana Youth Council presented its
recommendations to the Santa Ana WIB on September 9, 2005.
The Santa Ana WIB approved the new youth service provider contracts at
its September 9, 2005, meeting utilizing the 2005-06 WIA grant allocation
as well as some of the carryover funds from 2004-05. Services provided
to the youth include comprehensive education and employment preparation
services for both In-School and Out-of-School youth who are Santa Ana
residents between the ages of 16 and 21.
