EXECUTIVE SUMMARY - ORANGE COUNTY LOCAL PLAN
<br />Orange County is the sixth largest county in the United States with a population of 3.1 million residents. Orange County has
<br />been identified by the state as a single economic sub- region and singular Regional Planning Unit (RPU). Within the Orange
<br />County RPU, there are three local boards: The Orange County Development Board (OCDB) administers a local workforce
<br />system for 2.4 million of the region's residents, serving 32 of the county's 34 cities and all of the unincorporated communities of
<br />the county. Additionally, OCDB has been selected by the County of Orange, Board of Supervisors as the designated coordinator
<br />of economic and workforce development for the County as a whole and as such, serves all 34 cities and unincorporated areas
<br />in this capacity. The Anaheim Workforce Development Board (AWDB) serves the City of Anaheim. The Santa Ana Workforce
<br />Development Board serves the City of Santa Ana. The Orange County Region (OC Region) and residents are all connected
<br />through interwoven labor markets, workforce activities, and services, To this end, In the true spirit of collaboration and system
<br />alignment, the three local boards have come together to submit one local plan that will implement the OC RPU's regional plan.
<br />The Orange County Local Plan (OC Local Plan) is driven by strategic initiatives in the regional plan with consideration of
<br />alignment with the strategic plans of key partners. The primary purpose of this local plan and partnerships therein, is to facilitate
<br />access to workforce services at the local level. While the regional plan focuses on constructing a regional training, education,
<br />and workforce architecture that aligns the regional labor markets, Individuals and businesses will access and experience this
<br />regional workforce architecture primarily through local service delivery efforts.
<br />VISION: The local strategic vision is to fuel collaborative partnerships, system alignment, policy development, funding oversight,
<br />and an integrated and innovative service delivery system that drives workforce and economic development to support and
<br />strengthen growth for the local and regional economy and economic self - sufficiency for individuals,
<br />GOALS: Based on analytical background information presented in the OC Regional Plan, the OC Local Plan's vision and
<br />corresponding goals are designed around articulating service delivery at the local level that aligns with the regional labor market
<br />needs and system architecture blueprint laid out in the regional plan,
<br />These local goals are in alignment with both the California State Plan and OC Regional Plan. These collaborative strategies for
<br />the OC Local Plan serve as an action plan to develop, align and integrate the region and local area's job- driven workforce
<br />development systems and provides the platform to achieve the local area's visions and strategic and operational goals with
<br />outcomes that will include, but not be limited to, the local workforce system's ability to:
<br />✓ Improve service delivery
<br />✓ Improve training and employment outcomes
<br />✓ Better meet employer needs
<br />✓ Coordinate regional service strategies for in- demand
<br />industry sectors or occupations
<br />✓ Deliver customer focused services to individuals and
<br />businesses
<br />✓ Meet and exceed local performance
<br />✓ Unify collection and analysis of regional labor market
<br />data
<br />✓ Coordinate costs and resources, such as: administrative,
<br />transportation, and support services
<br />✓ Align economic and workforce development activities
<br />and resources
<br />✓ Coordinate regional sector initiatives and develop
<br />regional sector pathways
