Santa Ana Blvd., #200 <br />Santa Ana, CA 92701 <br />Dear Ms. Castro-Cardenas, <br />As you know, the Orangewood Children's Foundation, Foster Youth Liaison Project was not funded by <br />the City of Santa Ana WIB for PY 2011/2012. We are contracted and committed to provide 12 months of <br />follow-up services for 26 PY 2010/2011 clients. Since we are not receiving new funds, we face financial <br />challenges to support staff, supportive services, and incentives to serve clients during the follow-up <br />year. Therefore, we would like request utilizing the remainder of this year's contracted funding amount <br />to extend our contract period through September 30, 2011. A contract extension and availability of <br />remaining funds to deliver quality services will support the following: <br />• Availability of 4 staff at 20 hours per week <br />• Job placement and/or enrollment in post-secondary education for up to 26 clients <br />• Attainment of a diploma or credential for up to 26 clients <br />• Distribution of incentives for those who meet performance measure goals <br />• Distribution of supportive services to assist client with performance measure goals <br />• Completion of 30-day and 60-day follow-ups and preparation for 1St quarter follow-ups for PY <br />2010/2011 clients <br />• Completion of 4th quarter follow-ups for PY 2009/2010 clients <br />• Completion of documentation in client files <br />Revised copies of our entire budget and budget narrative are enclosed. A budget form indicating the <br />funds that will be used during the extension period is also included. Please feel free to contact me <br />anytime should you have questions. My phone number is (714) 619-0208 or you may contact me via <br />email at rtheemlingC@orangewoodfoundation.org. <br />It has been a privilege to partner with the Santa Ana WIB since 2006 assisting foster youth with <br />workforce development. Although we are not a funded agency in PY 2011/2012, we hope we can be of <br />continued assistance to the WIB and partnering agencies as a resource and referral source for foster <br />youth clients. Thank you for your consideration of an extension of our PY 2010/2011 contract period. <br />Sincerely, <br />Robert B. Theemling <br />Chief Program officer <br />qmfwi ?
