Program Description TSJ Tech is positioned to serve the older youth (18 -21) population through an intensification of its present program with an emphasis on recruitment, assessment, training, case management, educational opportunities, support and employment services. Within the past year, Taller San Jose has made strategic moves to enlarge its capacity through the development of TSJ Tech. Partnerships with local community based organizations including: the Probation Department, Employment Development Department (EDD), the Regional Occupation Program, the Santa Ana W /O /R/K Center (SAWC), Santa Ana College (SAC), and the Orange County Conservation Corps (OCCC) have contributed to the ongoing development of programming and services at Taller San Jose. SAWC has been a key partner for Taller San Jose over the past several years. Collaboration between our organizations has included recruitment and referral of clients, participation in sponsored job fairs, pre - employment workshops, and job referrals and placement. SAWC is in close geographical proximity to the TSJ Tech site and will make its services and resources available to student and graduates of our work experience programs. SAWC staff will have an active role in the presentation of job skills to TSJ Tech student apprentices. TSJ Tech will continue to work with SAWC as a center for recruitment of prospective students and a center for referrals to employment for TSJ Tech graduates. In addition, the OCCC will play an important role in student success by offering paid work experience to graduates of TSJ Tech's job - training program. OCCC will hire 20 TSJ Tech graduates to work on conservation projects throughout Orange County. See Attachment B for further information about the Provider Work Plan. 1.
