released and eight responses were received for the 2008-09 program year.

neediest youth as outlined by the Department of Labor's "New Strategic
Vision for the Delivery of Youth Services under the Workforce Investment

that at least eighty percent of the funds are obligated each year, as
required by the Act.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The concept of the "Daisy Wheel" service delivery was adopted in 2002 by the Santa Ana Youth
Council to provide an "All Youth One System", where resources would be leveraged from a
network of Youth Service Providers now known as the Youth Service Provider Network
(YSPN). The concept allowed youth regardless of eligibility to receive services from the various
Service Providers and the Santa Ana W/O/R/K Center (SA WC). The Workforce Investment Act
(WLA) requires that ten program elements be delivered in a developmental approach to allow
youth to receive resources that will help them overcome barriers to education and employment.
The WLA ten elements require a collaborative, coordinated and sequenced approach to assisting
youth served with WIA funds.
The YSPN was formulated with this principle in mind so that no one Service Provider would
have to provide all ten elements, allow more youth to be served by the Service Providers through
other non- WIA funding streams, and to streamline services provided to youth which were
fragmented prior to the development of the YSPN. The YSPN consists of Service Providers that
collectively offer the ten WIA program elements in a creative and interactive manner. The
concept, as required by the YSPN, allows the Service Provider to focus on what service they
specialize in and do best. This, however, is not possible without the role of the Service
Navigator. The role of the Service Navigator is critical to promote broad-based coordination and
cooperation among all youth Service Providers and to provide the technical assistance needed to
make the network a success.
Funded through the Santa Ana Workforce Investment Board (WIB)- Youth Council and acting as
the Youth Service Navigator, the City of Santa Ana W IO/R/K Center (SA WC) assumes the
primary responsibility of determining youth eligibility, providing technical assistance, training
and sharing best practice in case management, placement, exit, and follow-up services. In
addition, the SA WC ensures the completion and accuracy of all required forms and
documentation. As the Service Navigator, the SA WC will work cooperatively with all Service
Providers from the initial outreach, recruitment and intake process to the successful completion,
exiting, and follow-up of all WIA youth enrolled in the YSPN.
3
25G-129
As the Service Navigator, the SA WC brings to the YSPN over 20 years of extensive experience,
administering a variety of Federal and State funded programs. Staff is well versed in both
programmatic and fiscal requirements. As an on-going effort, the SA WC has made it a priority to
keep staff updated and trained on all State and Federal workforce legislation pertinent to various
targeted programs. Since the inception of the YSPN, the SA WC has been instrumental in helping
the Network meet the required performance measures through consistent oversight and guidance
in intake, eligibility, case management, exit, and follow-up. Moreover, through its partnership
with local businesses and organizations, the SA WC has a comprehensive realm of services and
resource available to the YSPN and the youth they enroll.
The SA WC will maintain communication with the youth Service Providers during the life of the
contract by coordinating monthly meetings with all Service Providers for program, legislation,
MIS/JT A paperwork updates, and to address any questions or concerns they may have.
Individual meetings with Service Providers will also be arranged to assist and address individual
issues or questions. The SA WC Youth Help Desk will assist with the marketing, recruitment,
outreach, and placement efforts of the YSPN.
To assist in facilitating the communication with the WIB-Fiscal Unit, the SA WC Fiscal Liaison
will ensure that Service Providers receive up-to-date information on their invoices and payments.
The Fiscal Liaison will report back to the Service Providers on the status of their invoices as well
as any issues pertaining to fiscal matters. Ultimately the SA WC's goal is to provide the
assistance and tools necessary to allow the Service Providers to focus on providing streamlined
services to the youth of Santa Ana. A more detailed description on how the SA WC will function
as the Service Navigator is explained below:
OUTREACH AND RECRUITMENT
Since the development of the YSPN, the SA WC has made it a priority to inform the public of the
services and programs available through the YSPN. Through its partnerships and collaboration
with community agencies, the SA WC has been engaged in planning and participating in
4
25G-130
community events, job fairs, resource fairs and conducting presentations to connect youth with
the YSPN programs.
Some of the major events in which the SA WC participates include the Annual Summer Youth
Job Fair hosted by Employment Development Department (EDD), the World of Work Career
Fair sponsored by the Orange County Department of Education, and the Youth Collaborators
Conference supported by the Boys & Girls Club. Utilizing the relationships we have established
with the Santa Ana Unified School District and the Orange County Department of Education, the
SA we has been able to deepen its outreach effort to a much broader base of youth, parents, and
educators in the community. The SA we recognizes the importance of marketing the entire
YSPN and its comprehensive programs and services. Every effort is made to ensure that staff
markets the network at all job fairs, youth oriented recruitment and outreach events, thus,
benefitting all Service Providers.
One of the most recent achievements by the SA WC, in partnership collaboration with the EDD,
was the inaugural launching of the Youth Help Desk at the WORK Center in the summer of
2007; the objective of the Youth Help Desk is to offer a place for youth to obtain information,
services, work readiness assistance and referrals. Staff at the Youth Help Desk has been trained
to conduct comprehensive assessments for youth, address workforce needs, provide referrals to
YSPN programs, and be an overall resource to the youth that come to the SA We. The Youth
Help Desk has been instrumental in bringing to fruition one of the initial goals behind the Daisy
Wheel YSPN concept, which was to provide an "All Youth One System" that provides all Santa
Ana youth with services regardless of eligibility.
The SA we has been able to leverage resources through the City of Santa Ana's Economic
Development Department for marketing materials and to work collaboratively with the Business
Outreach Team to promote services offered by the YSPN, Youth Help Desk and SA We.

25G-131
TRAINING & TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
For more than 20 years, the SA we staff has successfully administered and implemented many
federally and state funded employment and training programs. As an on-going effort, the SA WC
has made it a priority to keep staff updated and trained on all State and Federal workforce
legislation pertinent to various targeted programs. Over the years, staff has acquired and kept
abreast with the latest workforce trends and legislative changes to ensure compliance with state
and federal regulations. Staff has developed comprehensive training manuals and conducted
regular training for all Service Providers using a customer friendly and easily understood format.
Since the inception of the Daisy Wheel YSPN in 2002, staff has also translated various complex
system measurements and mandatory reporting requirements into an easily understood formate
for the YSPN Service Providers. As the Service Navigator, the SA WC has organized andlor
developed the following training for all Service Providers in order to stay current and be in
compliance with our state and federal regulations:

Data Validation
For the past five years, the SA WC, as the Service Navigator, meets with the YSPN on a monthly
basis to provide them with monthly reports and the status of their case loads. At the monthly
YSPN meeting, the SA WC reports out on enrollments, activities, exits, and follow-ups. As
needed, the SA WC also conducts staff in-service training for the Service Providers and alerts
them of any changes to paperwork as well as modifications to process and procedures. As the
Service Navigator, one of our goals has been to provide the YSPN with all the tools necessary to
allow them to focus on providing services to the youth in Santa Ana. The SA we continues to
avail itself to all Service Providers for individualized training and technical assistance. At times,
when Service Providers have experienced staff turnover, the SA WC staff readily stepped in and
provided much needed transitional and customized training to ensure continuity and consistency
25G-132
6
of service delivery. Examples of training include eligibility requirements, intake process, goal
setting, case management techniques, perfonnance management, exit strategies and follow-up
techniques. The trainings were tailored to meet the specific needs of each Service Provider.
ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION
The SA WC as the Service Navigator will assume the primary responsibility of determining WIA
youth eligibility in accordance with Federal, State, and local rules and regulations. We will train
Service Providers on the eligibility process, provide eligibility forms, calculate participant's
family income, determine participant eligibility, review and analyze participant goals and
activities, and process eligibility JT AIM IS forms.
The SA WC has a designated Eligibility Technician with the expenence and knowledge to
determine WIA youth eligibility effectively. The Eligibility Technician will review all submitted
applications and determine eligibility by verifying eligibility documentation, youth participant
right to work, selective service compliance (for males 18 years and older), and determining
income eligibility in accordance with the Poverty Guidelines. Review goals and activities to
ensure that Performance Measures can be attained, record the participants' information in a
database in order to produce reports necessary to keep Service Providers informed, and forward
accurate JT A forms to MIS personnel.
Recommendations, suggestions, and/or corrections are given to each Service Provider as needed
to ensure that the eligibility requirements have been met, and that enrollment goals for each
program and the YSPN as a whole are reached. An Eligibility Flow Chart is attached (see
attachment A) to provide a better understanding of how eligibility is processed.
COMPLETING JTA & MIS FORMS
The SA WC will ensure that JT AlMIS forms are completed accurately and submitted within the
allotted timeframe. We will review all JT AlMIS forms to ensure accuracies and compliance with
Federal, State, and Local guidelines. All Service Provider will be provided with computerized
JT AlMIS forms, training on completion of JT AlMIS forms, and a JT AlMIS Time Line Policy.
7
25G-133
SA WC staff will be available to answer questions and provide technical assistance to all Service
Provider regarding the forms.
JT AlMIS forms are processed in a chronological order by the Service Provider and the SA We.
Once the application, activity form, and youth test score forms are submitted to the SA we, it is
the responsibility of the Service Navigator to ensure that all information is accurate and the
activities match the youth's needs. In addition, the SA WC ensures the documented youth test
scores are accurate and that all forms have appropriate signatures. It is very important to track
key information from each form in order to produce reports for Service Providers, track
performance outcomes, and have the information readily available to provide guidance to the
Service Provider on how to proceed with their participants at any given period. The SA WC has
developed its own tracking database tailored to provide the above capabilities while giving itself
the flexibility and information to provide the YSPN with specialized technical assistance.
In addition to the tracking system, a reference file has been created for each youth enrolled in the
YSPN in order to track JT AlMIS forms and ensure accuracy of information. The SA WC will
make copies of the completed JT AlMIS forms and forward them to the MIS Unit for entry into
the State data system for official enrollment. Copies of the JT AlMIS forms with an official stamp
will be returned to the corresponding Service Provider.
As activities are closed, the Service Provider is to submit JT AlMIS forms along with data
verification, if necessary, to the SA we who will ensure their accuracy, input the data into the
tracking system, make copies of the forms, and submit the forms to the MIS unit for official
recording.
Once a Service Provider is ready to exit a youth participant, SA we is consulted to determine the
best exit strategy. The objective is to make sure that the youth has received quality and necessary
assistance to improve their situation and meet WIA Performance Measures. As the Service
Navigator, the SA WC is responsible for reviewing every exit form, requesting data verification if
necessary, obtaining post test score forms, making sure that all activities are closed, and ensuring
8
25G-134
that exiting the youth is in the best interest of the youth first and then to the YSPN as a whole.
Once that has been established, all exit forms and pertinent inforn1ation are input into the
tracking system and copies are made and sent to the MIS unit for entry into the JT A system.
Follow-up services will be conducted for one year for each exited participant by the responsible
Service Provider. Follow-Up forms will be submitted to the SA WC for review, for input into the
tracking system, for data verification, and to enter into the JT A system.
JOB DEVELOPMENT & PLACEMENT
The SA WC has a comprehensive realm of services available through its partnership with local
businesses and organization. The SA WC is an integral part of the City's Economic Development
Department that is comprised of workforce development, Empowerment Zone and Enterprise
Zone Programs. The Enterprise and Empowerment Zone programs are designed to promote
business growth and job generation by offering state and federal tax credits and highly valuable
economic incentives to businesses. Many of our Santa Ana residents including youth qualify for
these tax credits, thus providing significant bottom line savings for Santa Ana businesses. It is
through all the various links that the SA WC is able to provide the community with quality job
placement assistance and offer connections to a strong labor market. The SA WC will offer
assistance and guidance in job placement by notifying Service Providers and youth of job
opportunities, employer on-site hiring recruitments, and job fairs. SA WC will notify Service
Providers daily via electronic mail andlor flyers regarding job announcements; In addition, the
Youth Help Desk will be available to assist youth looking for employment by providing them
with job search assistance, job opening, resume assistance, labor market information and demand
occupations.
PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
The SA WC, through its extensive experience administering Federal and State funded programs,
understands that WIA performance management is vital to the success of the YSPN. As of July
1, 2007 the Department of Labor (DOL), Employment and Training Administration (ETA)
approved regulations that all WIA youth programs in California must move from the statutory
performance measures that we have been following since the beginning of WIA, to the Common
9
25G-135
Performance Measures. This means that there is no longer a separation of performance measures
for older youth (19-21 year old) and younger youth (14-18 years old). Youth measures have
been combined to include placement in employment or education, attainment of a degree or
certificate, and literacy and numeracy gains.
It is important that the YSPN understand how this will impact their caseloads, future
enrollments, and overall success. As the Service Navigator, the SA WC has been preparing for
these changes since the proposed changes were announced by the Department of Labor a few
years ago. Staff has attended common measure trainings through DOL and at the annual
California Workforce Association Conferences. This is just one example of our commitment to
helping the YSPN stay in compliance and up to date with new regulations so the YSPN can
succeed in meeting all Federal, State, and locally mandated performance measures. Training on
common measures to allow all Service Providers to have a basic understanding of what common
measures are and how they will affect them will continue to be a priority for the SA We.
The SA WC will provide all Service Providers with individual exit oversight. Staff will meet
individually with each Service Provider to go over exit strategies for each youth actively enrolled
on their case load and evaluate which youth are ready to exit the program and how their exit will
impact the overall success of the YSPN. The SA WC will train all Service Providers on how to
exit and follow-up on their youth in order to comply with federal, state, and local regulations.
We will use our data base to provide reports to the Service Providers and inform them of follow-
up due dates for each participant at their 30, 60, 151, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarter follow-up. The
Service Provider will also receive updated charts and data informing them of how they are doing
with their WIA Performance Measures individually and as a Network This will ensure that as a
network we stay informed of our planned versus actual goal attainments and that we meet all
requirements and measurements.
CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
Measuring customer satisfaction has always been an integral part of the YSPN program
operation. Currently, the SA WC is responsible for monitoring and supporting continuous
improvement work teams as well as monitoring and increasing customer satisfaction for the
10
25G-136
entire SA We. A customer satisfaction survey tool for clients and employers has been developed
for those serviced by the SA We. The SA we will assjst in tajloring a survey for par6cipants
under the YSPN. All Service Providers will administer surveys during the life of the program as
youth are exited from the program. In addjtion, all customer satisfaction outcomes will be
reported to the Youth Council. The SA WC will create and implement a contjnuous
improvement plan based on the results of the customer satisfaction survey. Weare committed to
providjng exceptional customer services and will strive for continuous improvement utilizing
data collected and by sharing this valuable information with all youth Servjce Providers.
FISCAL OVERSIGHT
The SA we is responsible for processing the Service Providers invojces and reimbursement
requests. It is the responsibility of the SA WC to ensure that all Service Providers understand
that the utilization of WIA funds is to be reasonable, allowable and allocable as required by
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) circulars, Code of Federal Regulations, EDD
Directives and City of Santa Ana policies. The Fiscal Specialist and Fiscal Liaison provide a
mandatory annual training to all Service Provjders fiscal staff regarding the necessary
requirements for invoicing their program expenses. At this annual training, all Service Provider
will receive a YSPN Fiscal Regulations binder with the fiscal regulations and resources
necessary for the successful fiscal management ofthejr programs.
The Santa Ana WIB is required by federal regulation to conduct a fiscal monitoring of all
programs funded by WIA. Onsite monitoring must occur at least once during the program year,
must review fiscal records as well as policies and procedures, and provide a written report
delineating findings, any needed corrective actions, a timeline for accomplishing the correctjve
actions and include any follow-up on corrective actions. The SA WC Fiscal Specialist establishes
a monjtoring schedule for visiting each program operator in the YSPN. During the review,
financial records are sampled to ensure accuracy and compliance with federal, state and local
regulations. Technical assistance is offered when necessary to establish and maintain accurate
accounting procedures. SA WC fiscal staff works with the service provider's fiscal staff to
resolve any issues that arise from the monitoring. Written reports are issued indicating findings
11
25G-137
and weaknesses. Staff follows up with the program operators to resolve findings and maintain
financial records as required by regulations.

The SA WC is a part of the City of Santa Ana. All fiscal and procurement operations follow the
policies and procedures of the City. As a part of the City's accounting system, the SA WC has
various account numbers assigned that relate to specific funding sources. Revenues and
expenditures are coded with account numbers relating to those funding sources. Monthly
financial statements are produced based on charges to those accounts. The monthly reports
indicate the line item budget amounts, expenditures against the budget and the balance remaining
for each account and funding program.
Accounts Payable
YSPN service provider invoices with accompanying documentation are received and reviewed
by the Fiscal Liaison for allowable and reasonable expenditures and for completeness of
documentation. Any discrepancies are reported back to the Service Provider with requests for
additional documentation as needed. After the invoices have been reviewed, they are forwarded
to the Fiscal Specialist for final review, assigning of account numbers and approval for payment.
The invoices, along with a request for payment, are sent to City Hall for processing. During the
payment process at City Hall, the payment amount, payee, invoice number, payment date and
account number are entered into the accounting system. (See Attachment C - Invoice Process)
General operating costs of the SA WC are processed in a similar manner. Invoices are reviewed
by the Fiscal Specialist who assigns the relevant account code based on the chart of account
established by the City. The invoices are approved and forwarded for processing and payment.
At the end of the month, expense reports are prepared by account and distributed to the various
agencies within the City.
Payroll
As part of the City of Santa Ana, SAWC staff is paid twice a month. Time sheets are completed
by all staff indicating functions and programs that have been worked on during that particular
12
25G-138
pay period. That infonnation, with the accompanying account numbers, is entered into the
payroll system by the Payroll Specialist. Payroll dollar amounts are posted to the accounting
system and are reflected on the monthly financial reports.
Procurement
The SA WC follows the City of Santa Ana's procurement policies as well as federal and state
regulations related to procurement. Purchase requisitions for items over $500 are entered into
the accounting system and approved by the finance staff at City Hall. Buyers from the
Purchasing Department review the requisitions and issue purchase orders following City policies
and procedures. When the goods are received by SA WC, staff compares the goods delivered to
the purchase requisition for completeness and accuracy. The purchase order paperwork is
approved, signed and returned to the Purchasing department. Payment for the goods is initiated
through the Purchasing department following City procedures.
