Orange County Conservation Corps <br />Santa Ana Workforce Investment Board - The Youth Service Provider Network <br />Request for Proposal <br />PY 201212013 <br />8. Describe how the program will lead to a pathway of self - sufficiency: The Orange County <br />Conservation Corps will enroll the neediest at -risk youth as designated by the Santa Ana Youth <br />Council, those who need to learn how to work and go to school The Corps is a six to twelve <br />month comprehensive program with various components and strategies designed to guide and <br />support youth into being employable, trainable, self - sufficient adults. The program's support <br />services and paid work experience will help the youth to stabilize their lives and help them deal <br />with the many issues they face on a daily basis so they can first maintain their employment and <br />education program. Once the youth become stable and are able to maintain employment and <br />education, they will continue to be assisted in furthering their education, improving their work <br />skills, and seeking better employment post - corps, leading to a life of self - sufficiency. <br />9. Describe how the program includes opportunities for participants to gain work <br />experience and receive compensation whether through payroll, stipends, incentives:As a <br />part of their training, Corps Members are placed in on- the -job training, and they are paid for the <br />work they do. These paid work experience placements have been developed by the Corps to <br />assist local cities, county agencies, and other nonprofit agencies with their conservation needs. <br />The Orange County Conservation Corp work projects are environmentally -based and benefit the <br />community. <br />Funding for these work projects are provided through the California Department of Resources <br />Recycling and Recovery Division of Recycling, National Emergency Grants, as well as <br />individual and corporate contributions, contracts with the Orange County, Anaheim and Santa <br />Ana WI13s, and fee - for - service projects such as the Irvine Recycling Center. The Orange County <br />Conservation Corp serves as the employer of record and has years of experience handling the <br />payroll for the Corps Members. <br />Paid work experience is a major component of Orange County Conservation Corps; and the <br />funding agencies require accurate accounting for all expenditures as well as documentation of <br />skill achievement. On- the -job training allows the Corps Members to earn an income and at the <br />same time they are trained in new work skills, develop a work ethic, learn responsibility and <br />demonstrate leadership skills. <br />10. Indicate how the program uses innovative teaching strategies to improve numeracy and <br />literacy:WIA Participants will meet daily with certificated teachers for a total of ten hours per <br />week of in -class instruction and tutoring to deliver academic assistance to raise the skill level of <br />basic skills deficient youth. The Orange County Conservation Corps' Charter School delivers its <br />academic instruction knowing that most WIA Corps Members' basic academic skills are below <br />the 8th grade. In addition to classroom based instruction, other assistance provided may be: field <br />based, on -line, individual, small /large group, crew - based, using demonstrations, lectures, <br />packets, guest speakers, and individual research <br />11. Describe how the program assists youth in attaining employment or entering post- <br />secondary education: Employment services provided through the Corps -2- Career class lead to <br />occupations in high growth/high demand industries. WIA Corps Members in the Corps -2- Career <br />class use the O *NET Interest Profiler TM compatible with Holland's R- 1- A -S -E -C Interest <br />5 <br />Exhibit A <br />
