Orange County Youth Commission <br />Santa Ana, California <br />scores, we intend to offer one-hour tutoring service prior to boxing activity and continue <br />to serve WIA youths who come later in the day. <br />6. Staffing <br />Adding more youth to our program, which we hope to do in 2010-2011, will also bring <br />the need to add additional staff members. Being that we will be opening a separate study <br />hall/ work center it will need to be staffed and supervised during hours of operation. <br />Staff will attend monthly meetings to insure the program is being implemented correctly <br />and quickly adjust the program to new requirements or assessment data. Staff will meet <br />regularly to evaluate program goal attainment including recruitment and goal setting and <br />achievement. We will keep in contact with WIA staff and be monitored by them during <br />the program. Case managers will go through files regularly and students will be assessed <br />prior to the program and during the program to ensure they are making progress as well <br />as at the end of the program. <br />D.

We also will recruit through our MAD (Making a Difference) After School Clubs. <br />Many of the children in our MAD Clubs have brothers and sisters that need help finding <br />jobs and have not finished school. Reaching out to help some of the families that already <br />have children participating in another one of our programs is a way to make our services <br />even more valuable to those families. Using the WIA check list is how we will determine <br />if a client qualifies for enrollment and eligibility. Within the first meeting that we have <br />with a potential client we can determine if the client is eligible and then we take our <br />paperwork to the Service Navigator to determine if we are correct in our evaluation. <br />Intake Assessment/ Case Mana eg ment <br />Our Case Manager, Anthony Serrano and the Assistant to the Case Manager, Tony Ortiz <br />will share intake assessment responsibilities.
