Participants will regularly provide feedback on the monthly Career Beginnings of Orange County events. All of this information will serve to assist WIA staff in monitoring the progress of Success Bound! activities so that improvement can be made whenever necessary. Meetings with the W/O/R/K Center Service Navigation staff to ensure that administrative, recruitment and case management procedures are both effective and efficient will augment these procedures. 11
