OUTREACH AND RECRUITMENT <br /> Since the development of the YSPN, the SAWC has made it a priority to inform the public of the <br /> services and programs available through the YSPN. Through its partnerships and collaboration <br /> with community agencies, the SAWC has been engaged in planning and participating in <br /> community events, job fairs, resource fairs and conducting presentations to connect youth with <br /> the YSPN programs. <br /> Some of the major events in which the SAWC participates include the Annual Summer Youth <br /> Job Fair hosted by Employment Development Department (EDD), Senior Transitions Day hosted <br /> by the Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD), and the World of Work Career Fair <br /> sponsored by the Orange County Department of Education. Utilizing the relationships we have <br /> established with the SAUSD, EDD, Orange County Probation, and the Orange County <br /> Department of Education the SAWC has been able to deepen its outreach effort to a much <br /> broader base of youth, parents, and educators in the community. The SAWC recognizes the <br /> importance of marketing the entire YSPN and its comprehensive service programs. Every effort <br /> is made to ensure that staff markets the network at all job fairs, youth oriented recruitment and <br /> outreach events, thus, benefitting all Service Providers. <br /> The SAWC has been able to leverage resources through the City of Santa Ana's Economic <br /> Development Department for marketing materials and to work collaboratively with the Business <br /> Outreach Team to promote services offered by the YSPN and SAWC. <br /> TRAINING & TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE <br /> For more than 10 years, the SAWC staff has successfully administered and implemented many <br /> federally and state funded employment and training programs.

Over the years, staff has kept abreast with the <br /> latest workforce trends and legislative changes to ensure compliance with state and federal <br /> <br /> regulations.
