Eligible participants would complete a five/six-week course, that would meet weekly <br />in a classroom setting to increase the knowledge, skills, and resources that would teach such skills and provide <br />tools to apply to budgeting, applying for a home or auto loan, dealing with debt and debt collectors, increasing <br />credit scores, job searching tips, identity theft prevention, and much more. CAP OC would target low-income <br />families, especially those with young children, living in underserved communities, who are at high -risk for <br />homelessness; nearly 99% of all current CAP OC clients are low-income, as defined by Federal Poverty Level <br />guidelines. <br />In 2018, thanks to funding through the Office of Child Abuse Prevention, which linked financial instability with child <br />abuse, the organization launched its Financial Empowerment program as a pilot, which included a variety of <br />workshops such as Financial Empowerment Education for Adults and Youth, covering banking, development of <br />spending plans, understanding and establishing credit, and learning hands-on tools for money management. An <br />additional program, Workforce Readiness for Adults and Youth, focuses on skills necessary to obtain a job, <br />including time management, resume building, interview skills, and effective job searching. The program provides <br />practical strategies and easy to understand ways to save for emergencies and obtain personal financial goals <br />through a five -week curriculum. <br />The City of Santa Ana CDBG funding will enable us to hire additional staff to provide the course at Southwest <br />Community Center, as well as other locations throughout the city. It is our belief, that <br />through weekly and monthly workshops at participating community centers and Wellness Centers CAP OC will be <br />able to strengthen and empower low-income individuals and families to reach financial goals and improve stability. <br />EXHIBIT A <br />
