Phase II Memorandum of Understanding With Mandated Partner Organizations Under the <br />Workforce Innovation And Opportunity Act <br />August 15, 2017 <br />Page 2 <br />DISCUSSION <br />The federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) was signed into law on July 22, <br />2014 replacing the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (WIA). Initial implementation of the new <br />legislation began July 1, 2015 with full implementation required July 1, 2017. <br />WIOA mandates that certain federal, state and local agencies formally partner with the local <br />Workforce Development Boards to align investments in workforce, education and economic <br />development with regional in -demand industries. Local workforce boards, with the agreement of <br />the local elected body, are responsible for developing a MOU with each of the America's Jobs <br />Center of California (AJCC) partners. The law envisions that the local board will act as both the <br />convener of the MOU negotiations as well as the shaper of how One Stop services are delivered <br />within the local area. <br />The State Employment Development Department, Workforce Services Agency has issued <br />guidance on the development of the MOU's thru directive WSD16-09. The State is asking that <br />the MOU's be developed in two phases. Phase I, Local Boards are to work with the required <br />partners in their local area to develop an agreement regarding the operation of the local One <br />Stop system as it relates to shared services and customers and to have the MOU's in place by <br />June 30, 2016. <br />Phase II, Local Boards are to build upon the initial MOU and determine how to best support the <br />established service delivery model thru the sharing of resources and expenses associated in the <br />operations of a One -Stop Center. The State Workforce Development Board has requested that <br />the Phase II MOU's be completed and submitted by September 1, 2017. <br />The mandated programs and services required in a MOU with are as follows: <br />Program <br />Organization <br />WIOA Title I — Adult, Dislocated Worker and <br />Youth <br />City of Santa Ana WORK Center <br />WIOA Title II —Adult Education and Literacy <br />Rancho Santiago Community College <br />WIOA Wagner-Peyser, Veterans, Trade <br />Adjustment Assistance Act <br />California Employment Development <br />Department <br />WIOA Title IV Vocational Rehabilitation <br />California Department of Rehabilitation <br />Carl Perkins Career Technical Education <br />Santa Ana Unified School District <br />Title V Older Americans Act <br />SER — Jobs for Progress <br />Job Cors <br />Long Beach Job Corps <br />Native American Programs — Section 166 <br />Southern California Indian Center <br />Housing and Urban Development <br />City of Santa Ana Housing Authority <br />Unemployment Compensation UI <br />California Employment Development <br />25C-2 <br />
