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 WIA services to local qualified at-risk youth. On January 14, 2011, the Santa Ana WIB authorized the Youth Council to release a Request for Proposal (RFP) seeking providers of youth services for the period of July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012 utilizing Program Year 2011-12 WIA youth funds. On February 24, 2011, the RFP was released to the public with fourteen agencies submitting proposals for consideration. On April 28, 2011, the RFP Review Committee, comprised of four Youth Council members, reviewed the proposals and finalized recommendations to fund four youth service providers. The requests are reflected in the recommended action (Exhibit 1-A and Exhibit 1-B). These funding recommendations take into account the WIA requirement to ensure at least thirty percent of the youth funds are spent on Out-of-School Youth and the Youth Council's commitment to serve the neediest youth as outlined by the Department of Labor's "New Services under the Workforce Investment Act." These recommendations are the first steps needed to ensure that at least eighty percent of the funds are obligated each year, as required by the Act. 25C-2 Allocation of WIA Youth Funds PY 11-12 & Navigator MOU Extension June 20, 2011 Page 3 On July 6, 2010, the City Council approved an extension of the term of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Santa Ana WORK Center/Youth Service Program Navigator through June 30, 2011. The Youth Service Navigator assumes the responsibility of determining Workforce Investment Act (WIA) youth eligibility for WIA funded programs and services, provides technical assistance to youth service providers, shares best practice in case management, placement, exit, and follow-up services. In addition the Youth Service Navigator ensures the completion and accuracy of all required forms and documentation, works cooperatively with all youth 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 Youth Service Provider Network (YSPN). This extension would extend the term from July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012. The Service Navigator Program Plan and budget for Program Year 2011-12 is attached (Exhibit 2). FISCAL IMPACT Funds for these contracts will be available in the Workforce Investment Act Youth accounts (account no. 12318750-69135 and account no. 12318755-various) upon City Council's Adoption of the Fiscal Year 2011-2012 budget.
