C. In the event that CWDB determines that a conflict of interest situation exists, any cost associated with the conflict may constitute grounds for termination of this agreement. This provision shall not be construed to prohibit the employment of persons with whom the Contractor's officers, agents, or employees have family, business or other ties so long as the employment of such persons does not result in increased costs over those associated with the employment of any other equally qualified applicant and such persons have successfully competed for employment with other applicants on a merit basis.

Statement of Need Since the inception of Assembly Bill 109 (AB 109) Public Safety Realignment Act of 2011, the Orange Region Planning Unit (ORPU) has seen an accelerated number of justice -involved individuals. The Orange County in -custody prison population is the sixth largest in the State, accounting for 6,555 t. or 5% of the total prison population. In 2017, Orange County had the fifth highest number of parole releases with 964 or 5.3%, and had a total of 2,6802. parolees. The Orange County Probation Department (OC Probation) oversaw a total supervised population of 10,542?. probationers as of September 2018. The Orange County Sheriff s Department (OCSD) had 56,726 ^ releases in FY 2017-2018. Barriers for the Supervised Population are extensive and unique; many times include basic requirements, such as food, clothing, and shelter, which creates challenges beyond employment and training services. The needs for these individuals to become self-sufficient are varied and range from lack of job training difficulties with education, family law issues, immigration, and child support debt. The ORPU will maintain collaboration and conduct outreach to future partners to ensure that resources are available to assist this hard to serve population. Since July 2016, WIOA Title I programs have served over 339 justice -involved individuals. Of those served, roughly 50% obtained employment in the OC Region. In addition, the OC and correction partners implemented the Linking to Employment Activities Pre -Release (LEAP) programs and Forward Focus/Supervised Population workforce training programs. These projects focused on effective strategies within the jails and continue post -release: LEAP 1 LEAP 2 • Total Enrolled Pre -Release: 140 • Total Enrolled Pre -Release: 96 • Enrollment in Training Post -Release: 46 i Enrollment in Training: 22 Pre -Release; 10 Post- • Entered Employment Post -Release: 52 Release , • Entered Employment Post -Release: 24 Forward Focus/Supervised Population (Post -Release) • Total Enrolled: 94 • Entered Employment: 45 • Enrollment in Training: 59 • Retention in Employment 6 months: 27 • Completion of Training: 52 • Placement in Post -Secondary Education: 4 • Attained Industry Valued Certificates: 37 • Placement in State -Approved Apprenticeship: 1 The ORPU identified several collaborative strategies to reverse the trend of criminal recidivism in hopes of making a meaningful impact in the region. Pre- and post -release services must be implemented to assist justice -involved individuals in examining societal and self-imposed barriers to work and life adjustment and community reintegration. The provision of pre-release services, such as workforce co -location in jail, allows for a smooth transition that increases post -release success. In addition, the need for workforce staff co -location at key sites (jail release centers, parole and probation reporting centers) increases accessibility to employment and supportive services for successful reintegration into the community. With a successful partnership between workforce and supervision, increasing the quality of employment opportunities, those providing a livable wage, will have a significant impact on recidivism_' IL Partnerships Partner Roles (see Partnership Agreement/Letters of Commitment) .Local Workforce Development Boards•.

The Local Boards will utilize the region's One - Stop Systems to augment delivery of services to program participants. • .Representatives of State Parole offices for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation:. The Division of Adult Parole Operations (DAPO), Southern Region, as well as Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) programs strategies are available to this population. DAPO staff will cooperate with Reentry Navigators to ensure parolees (Justice Involved) are referred to and have relevant information available to progress through training, educational and job opportunities. The leveraged contribution to this project will be staff time and delivery of program services. • .Community Based Organizations (CBOs): a. Working Wardrobes has served the justice -involved population for over 25 years, and has successfully developed curriculum targeted specifically to the incarcerated, recently released, and both in -and out -of - custody job seekers. For this initiative, Working Wardrobes will provide case management, workforce readiness training, job training, and soft skills modules to assist the men and women with multiple barriers to employment. They will also offer job development services and placement assistance with numerous employer partners. b. Project Kinship serves as a convener of community resources, and advocates for the health, mental health, and well-being of the reentry population. Project Kinship offers prevention, intervention, and treatment programming; and advocates for system solutions to flip the school -to -prison into the prison -to -career pipeline. The proposed program will serve as a natural continuation of Project Kinship's workforce development and education programs, including restorative practices; job training and vocational support services; and case management services offered to individuals with histories of gang and/or justice system involvement. The main objectives of Prison to Employment Initiative (P2E) are: 1) career planning, work readiness skill building, training, and certifications; 2) job development, intensive case management, and peer mentoring; 3) education enrollment and retention; 4) civic opportunities and leadership development; and 5) incentives, training stipends, paid work experience, and other supportive services. c. Chrysalis has introduced a model for workforce development to assist criminal justice -involved individuals' transition into permanent employment to accomplish the goal of self-sufficiency. Chrysalis has developed a social enterprise that provides transitional employment for those with severe barriers to employment, including individuals in the criminal justice system. As part of the proposed partnership, Chrysalis agrees to provide the following services to eligible participants: one-on-one case management focused on securing employment; job readiness classes; resume preparation; and interview skills training. The organization would like to offer supportive service resources related to participants' job search, including interview clothing, transportation assistance, computer lab access, and phone bank use. Transitional job opportunities are offered throughout Chrysalis' program. d. The ORPU is a member of the Orange County Reentry Partnership (OCREP) this committee is a linkage of CBOs and advocates which function together to serve as a link between community resource providers and justice involved individuals striving to re-establish healthy, productive, and rewarding lives. • .Orange County Probation Department and Community Corrections Partnership.: The Chief Probation Officer of Orange County also chairs the Orange County Community Corrections Partnership (OCCCP) under the authority of Section 1230(b)(2) of the California Penal Code, OC Probation will provide office space, telephone service, referrals and work in tandem with Orange County Reentry Navigators. • .Orange County Sheriffs Department (OCSM The OCSD will incorporate the P2E project. in the jails to screen eligible candidates. The OC Region operated a j ail -based AJCC within the Central Women's Jail and the Theo Lacy Jail, funded by the Department of Labor. LEAP 1 and LEAP 2 programs supported recidivism reduction by offering workforce training and development. • Labor Organizations and ioint labor-management partnerships•. Labor Organizations will provide apprenticeships and hiring opportunities for the formerly incarcerated and other justice -involved individuals. • Employers:. Employers will provide subsidize and unsubsidized employment opportunities for justice -involved individuals.

Adult Education Providers will coordinate efforts between workforce and education partners/stakeholders to provide training in demand occupations: Rancho Santiago Community College, Saddleback College, and North Orange County Community College District. • .Orange County Housing Authority:, The Orange County Housing Authority is a sister agency to the ORPU. Staff will work together to assist participants with housing needs. The ORPU will pursue a fully -integrated referral process that encompasses shared case management and will develop a multiple entry point system; a "no wrong door" approach for reentry and justice -involved clients in need of services. Correction partners have identified the need to co -locate allowing for Parole and Probation Officers to easily refer participants to employment services provided within their offices, this will allow for streamline of services between workforce and correction partners. This approach will allow direct referrals from Parole or Probation to a workforce navigator co -located within reporting centers. Furthermore, workforce staff from the local boards will be able to participate in Parole and Probation unit meetings that will facilitate the sharing of information. The OCRPU intends to serve participants who will reside in Orange County. However, if a participant moves out of the area, reentry navigators will refer participants to a One -Stop System/AJCC in their new Local Workforce Development Area (LWDA). Reentry navigators will contact the respective One -Stop System/AJCC and provide information to the participant about the One -Stop System/AJCC such as location, hours of operation, contact number, website details, and directions to access the One-Stop/AJCC. The ORPU will convene monthly meetings where all partners will come to the table to discuss participant accomplishments or issues, program updates, and upcoming events. Partners will have the opportunity to share best practices and lessons learned with regards to the service models that serve the region's justice involved population. The project will be in the Santa Ana Probation office, Orange County Day Reporting Center, and field offices (North County, West County and South County) as well as youth reporting centers (North Region and Juvenile Hall). IIl. Regional Implementation and Direct Services Plan 1. Describe the specific goals, objectives, and deliverables of project that will lead to improved outcomes for the justice -involved population, including successes in pre -apprenticeship, apprenticeship, and education (i.e. industry recognized certificates, credentials, and degrees), job placement etc. The ORPU intend to serve 350 participants who are under supervision by County probation or State parole. Depending on the outcome of their assessment they will be served thru work experience (WEX), on -the job training (OJT), training that leads to industry recognized certificate, or direct placement. Of those enrolled in training 75% will complete, 65% will enter employment, and 60 % retention in employment after six months. As income is very important to prevent recidivism and homelessness, an emphasis will be placed in WEX and or OJT. A pool of employers who employ justice involved individuals are known and staff will ensure WEX/OJTs are matched to work -ready participants. Recognizing that participants must re-enter the labor market fully armed with skills and competencies that make them true assets to employers. If classroom skills training, pre/apprenticeship and basic skills education are needed, Re-entry Navigators will help them enroll in short term training courses. Training plans will account for abilities and learning styles. The ORPU will pursue a fully -integrated referral process that encompasses shared case management and will develop a multiple entry point system; a "no wrong door" approach for reentry and justice -involved clients in need of services. Learning from the previous Supervised Population Grant 2.0, Correction partners have identified the need to co -locate allowing for Parole and Probation Officers to easily refer participants to employment services provided within their offices, this will allow for streamline of services between workforce and correction partners. This approach will allow direct referrals from Parole or Probation to a Re-entry Workforce Navigator. Furthermore, workforce staff from the local boards will be able to participate in Parole and Probation unit meetings that will facilitate the sharing of information. The reentry and justice -involved are often the least prepared for employment and lack financial resources to sustain participation in training over week or months. The One -Stop Systems in the ORPU will implement support services Page 13 Prison to Employment Initiative Direct and Supportive Services Grant Orange Regional Planning Unit protocols that provide direct support and referrals for transportation, clothes, uniforms, tools, and other necessities and referrals for housing, substance abuse and mental health services as necessary. Other system partners, such as OCCCP, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), CalFresh, OC Child Support, TANF and Adult Education Block Grant (AEGB), and a cadre of CBO's also provide resources to leverage and braid to meet the clients' needs. 2. Describe how funds provided through this initiative will complement the work of, and integrate the individuals being served with, the broader workforce, education and employment system within the proposed service area, and evidence that the proposal incorporates innovative strategies or proven practices for service delivery that will lead to improved outcomes, sustainability, and systems improvement. Thm its One Stops and partners, the ORPU can braid its experience in the broader workforce, education and employment system which will lead to greater employment opportunities for the participants thru its connection to employers, career planning case management and follow up, convening of business stakeholders and employers, industry focused research/industry roundtables, customized employer -driven training projects and published research on labor/workforce demands. 3. Describe how regional partnerships to serve the formerly incarcerated will interface with existing regional sector pathways efforts described in existing W10A regional plans and how information on priority industry sectors and occupations will be provided to partners. The ORPU participates in regional employer stakeholder forums in high growth industries and holds forums for specialty occupational demands. The top three industry sectors that have been identified in the regional plan are also friendly to the former incarcerated participants. They are 1) Manufacturing, 2) Hospitality & Tourism, and 3) Construction. The ORPU convenes quarterly a OC Regional Economic and Workforce Development Network that serves as a mechanism to streamline communication, ongoing collaboration across systems enhance workforce and economic development, and support sector initiatives. Members include educators (K-12, Adult Ed, Community Colleges), workforce and economic development professionals, Dept. of Rehabilitation, Social Services Agency, and EDD. Sharing of research, data and region needs will support the efforts of serving the formerly incarcerated. 4. Describe how regional partnerships to serve the formerly incarcerated will interface with existing CWDB grantees that serve this population, including Forward Focus, Workforce Accelerator Fund, and High Road Partnerships for Construction Careers grantees. We are incorporating best practices learned from LEAP 1, LEAP 2 and Supervised Population (post release) grants — the importance of co -location at probation and parole offices, quickly assessing work readiness and placement in a work experience, OJT and or education career training while also addressing barriers to success such as housing, substance abuse, transportation and family issues. We will coordinate with the community colleges that are working with inmates prior to release to prepare them for life outside of prison. We will work together to coordinate information and referral so as to have a better "hand off" upon release 5. Develop resources to inform employers about AB 1008 Fair Chance Hiring, federal WOTC, California NETC, Federal Fidelity Bonding through EDD, information about CBO's and other organizations that provide job placement services for formerly incarcerated people, and the benefits of hiring formerly incarcerated people. The ORPU has written and electronic material(s) that summarize the various rules/hiring incentives available to area employers who do hire formerly incarcerated individuals. ORPU staff and staff of the various CBO's and other partners working with us to develop OJT's or direct placement will be trained on all the employer incentives so that they can educated area employers on how to access and use the incentives. 6. Describe the process in which identification of and engagement with employers, industry sector partnerships, and labor-management partnerships who are willing to hire formerly incarcerated and justice -involved individuals, including those with felony convictions, and those who are currently under state or county supervision will occur. For this project the ORPU will leverage its Business Services team that works out of the respective comprehensive One Stop Centers to assist the Re-entry Navigators and CBO's to identify employers that are known to hire formerly Page 14 Prison to Employment Initiative Direct and Supportive Services Grant Orange Regional Planning Unit incarcerated individuals while also matching the skill set of the candidate to job openings, The ORPU has experience in working with this population and this grant will provide the ability to give greater focus to a segment of our community that has greater barriers to overcome and require support to reduce recidivism. The Business Service team and CBO partners already have a list of known businesses who are able to hire this population. The Business Services team works locally and regionally to place people. They use an interactive employment tool that simplifies the process of filling vacant positions using job listings, social media, mini- recruitment fairs to ensure fast, quality matches between employers and job seekers. They will expand their efforts to identify additional employers who will hire or offer on -site training opportunities for the former incarcerated. The ORPU Business Service team already meets on a regular basis. Justice involved friendly businesses will be added as a recurring agenda item to discuss and share employer names and job openings with the team working on this initiative. 7. Describe anticipated changes to existing MOU's with AJCC's and or new MOU's with other service providers including but not limited to addressing any challenges associated with local ordinances or policies relevant to executing new MOU's Working with formerly incarcerated individuals is not completely new to the ORPU. The opportunity to be co - located with probation and parole so as to meet the client on -site will greatly enhance our ability to better serve the individual. A Partner Agreement has already been developed with Parole and we are finalizing one with Probation and anticipate that being signed shortly. We will develop MOU's or agreements with area CBO's but do not anticipate problems nor do we foresee challenges associated with local ordinances or policies that may be in place. 8. Describe staff and training needs of RPU's, Local Boards, and partners to adequately serve this population In order to accommodate the demands of serving this population, extensive staff and training opportunities are necessary. The local AJCCs will require staff directly dedicated to serving this population, both in case management and business services. This ensures quick enrollment in order to begin the process to enter into career advising, training, OJT, or direct employment. Beyond staff needs, training is extremely important. In order to serve this population effectively, the OCRPU staff, Local Boards, and partners must become well versed in understanding. best practices in working with the justice -involved. The Workforce -Corrections partnership will provide instruction and guidance on how to work with this population. They will provide subject matter expertise to Local Boards and partners to assist in decision -making. They will provide information through trainings and meetings. For example, they will provide details on the hardest -to -serve within this population and provide advice on how resources could potentially be most effective. Furthermore, all involved must become knowledgeable of the resources available to both job seekers and employers that encourage job placement. Specifically, OCRPU staff require training from the Employment Development Department (EDD) and additional partners to receive an overview of the various available resources. This includes, but is not limited to, AB 1008 Fair Chance Hiring, the Federal Work Opportunity Tax Credit, California New Employment Tax Credit, and Federal Fidelity Bonding through the EDD state bonding services. AJCC staff will also work with Community Based Organizations (CBOs) and other organizations in the OC Region that provide job placement services for formerly incarcerated people and catalog employers that are willing to employ the justice -involved population. With this information, AJCC staff can work in providing workshops on tramings for potential employers to encourage and support them in hiring the justice -involved population. 9. Describe the provision of an education and training assessment for each individual of the supervised population who will participate in the project Comprehensive and specialized assessments of skill levels and service needs of supervised population will include diagnostic testing, use of assessment tools; in-depth interviewing and evaluation to identify employment barriers and appropriate employment goals. Assessment will entail an examination of the participant's basic skills, occupational skills, prior work experience, employability interests, aptitudes, supportive service needs, level of commitment to gaining and retaining employment and/or reaching and maintaining economic self-sufficiency as well as any restrictions or special requirements as part of their parole or probation Page 15 Prison to Employment Initiative Direct and Supportive Services Grant Orange Regional Planning Unit Completed assessment will lead to the development of an individual employment plan identifying the employment goals, appropriate achievement objectives, and appropriate combination of services to achieve the goals, and support services needs to remove barriers to achieving successful outcomes. At a minimum, take into account the participant's: Family situation, Education, Basic educational skill, Prior work experience and skills, Occupational skills, Life circumstances of barriers to participation in training and/or work, Employability (attitude towards work, motivation, work maturity skills, financial resources and needs, Interest, career goals and aptitudes (including non-traditional jobs), Supportive service needs, and Personal employment information relating to the local labor market. IV. Regional Supportive Service/Earn & Learn Plan 1. Describe strategies for offering services that are accessible to people who are likely to face the greatest challenges in the labor market such as persons with disabilities facing barriers to employment or low-income disconnected women and men with little to no previous work experience or education attainment and who require immediate income assistance. To assist those that face extensive barriers, the three local boards will make collaborative efforts towards enhancing Competitive Integrated Employment (CIE). CIE seeks to combine resources between the OCDB, SAWD13, AWDB and its partners in addressing employment for populations affected by Intellectual Disability (ID) and Development Disability (DD). Specifically, collaboration with the Department of Rehabilitation (DOR) is necessary in order to expand this initiative. The DOR is currently a member of the Chamber of Commerce and connects with local businesses on a monthly basis in order to introduce their services. DOR utilizes these events to present infomaation for On -the -Job training (OJT) and work experience opportunities. To address the needs of jobseekers with ID/DD or those that are low-income with little to no work experience or education, the three boards will continue to work alongside DOR in conducting trainings and outreach. Local AJCCs will host a DOR representative to take referrals and provide services, such as vocational training or employment services. Due to DOR's expertise in understanding the barriers of this population, they will continue to conduct trainings in order to educate and coach AJCC staff in handling this clientele. Case Managers will learn how to interact with the client and determine whether they should enter into training, job search, or receive a referral to another partner. In addition, Business Services Representatives will learn how to communicate with employers in order to incentivize ID/DD hires and provide guidance on how to hire and onboard this population_ In addition, AJCC staff will assist in connecting the population with OJT and additional job placement opportunities to ensure that clients can immediately attain an income. This is extremely important when addressing the needs of low-income members of the supervised population that must enter into the workforce soon after post -release, 2. Describe the types of services that are currently funded by existing, new, and prospective regional partners, the baseline levels of service (number of individuals and types of service) currently being provided in the region to individuals from this population, and how funds furnished through the Prison to Employment Initiative will modify the types and quantity of services provided. These modifications should reflect the diversity of services needed to address the evolving needs of individuals prior to and upon release. The ORPU engages with various local and regional partners in order to deliver services for clients. For programs that previously assisted justice -involved individuals, the region has served over 350 clients across the Orange County Workforce Area utilizing WIOA.funds. Current funding supports case management, business services, supportive services, and additional resources provided by partners. This includes, but is not limited to, indirect or direct payment for bus passes, uniforms, licensing fees, etc. If awarded, the funds are expected to serve an additional 350 justice -involved individuals within a similar capacity. Local AJCCs and partners will utilize P2E funding to cover internal and external expenses accrued for the supervised population pre and post -release. Page 16 Prison to Employment Initiative Direct and Supportive Services Grant Orange Regional Planning Unit 3. Identify potential barriers to successful participation and completion of workforce education and training among the region's reentry population, and describe which supportive services (e.g. transportation, childcare, housing assistance, etc.) will be provided, the partners responsible for providing those services, and the process by which individuals will be furnished with those services. Included in this description should be a plan that articulates outreach and recruitment strategies for ensuring these services are provided to those individuals who need the services most Numerous barriers negatively affect members of the supervised population. Justice -involved clients often lack the necessities such as food, clothing, and shelter. This hinders successful and sustainable employment, making it difficult for individuals to become self-sufficient. In addition, stigmas that arise with their record make it difficult to attain employment opportunities. Family law issues, immigration, and child support debt also contribute to the barriers faced by the targeted population. The ORPU currently has a Supportive Policy within each Local Workforce Area. AJCC staff will immediately identify and offer support services, providing assistance with job search, training, and follow-up services. The ORPU will maintain collaboration and conduct outreach to current and future partners to ensure that resources are available to assist this population. Case Managers will determine the client needs and work alongside Business Services Representatives in order to help place with job placement. A referral process that maintains communication amongst local and regional partners will assist in providing services to those that are most in need. Outreach to potential employers will also establish a pipeline for employment, educating them on how to hire and onboard this population. Supportive services designated will include childcare, transportation, clothing/uniforms, testing/licensing fees, eyeglasses, and additional grant allowable procurements. 4. Identify existing and potential opportunities to collaborate with parole and probation partners to 25 18 P2E RPA N84049 determine pre-release when formerly incarcerated individuals are being released into the community and how workforce partners will work with parole and probation to link those being released to workforce services that align with the level of support each individual needs. The ORPU will continue communicating with parole and probation in order to understand the needs of the supervised population pre-release to attain stable employment post -release. Workforce partners can assist in a variety of ways to hinder recidivism rates and ensure long-term success for the targeted population. AJCC staff can provide onsite and remote access to information of services and resources available through the local AJCCs and mandated partners through focused outreach efforts. They can assist in the delivery of basic career services including program orientation, information of universal access services, partnerships, and referrals to additional partner services, and resources available through the AJCC delivery system. To determine an individualized career and/or educational goals, AJCC staff can provide initial assessments of skill levels including literacy, numeracy, English language proficiency, aptitudes, and skill gaps. They can also provide comprehensive assessments and determine service needs through diagnostic testing, evaluation of employment barriers, and establishing appropriate employment goals In addition, staff can provide transitioning to career services for four quarters after the client's first day of employment. Furthermore, AJCC staff will develop an Individual Employment Plan (IEP) to identify employment and educational goals, appropriate achievement objectives, support service needs, selection of an eligible training provider, OJT opportunities, and available pre -apprenticeships to achieve established employment goals. Staff can facilitate client focused career counseling, job search activities, and placement assistance in collaboration with local partners, workforce development programs, and resources. This will occur through follow- up services to provide additional career counseling assistance, support services, and/or information of available resources through partners. Finally, the ORPU canatrengthen collaboration between the One -Stop Delivery System delivery system (AJCC), economic development activities, and local area employer needs to develop trainings including classroom, pre -apprenticeship, and OJT that integrate the Prison to Employment population into the local area workforce community. 5. Identify existing intake and case management needs for serving the justice -involved population, and describe how case managers will obtain current information about the education and training an individual received while incarcerated so as to build on both prior assessments of needs and pre-release education and training when determining which services and training to provide as well as how to best position individuals for job Page 17 Prison to Employment Initiative Direct and Supportive Services Grant Orange Regional Planning Unit placement. This should include the sharing of transcripts or other training information acquired while incarcerated (e.g. certificates, diplomas, degrees, documented work experience, etc.) with LWDBs. Upon referral to a Case Manager from the Regional Parole offices the parolee population will be assigned to a Case Manager and will be scheduled to attend an orientation and program registration. After registration, the Case Manager will work with the parolee to determine an appropriate plan, which will include an objective assessment and individual employment (IEP). The IEP will identify training opportunities available through the AJCC system that may be appropriate for the clients. Case Management and Business Services will assist in a variety of ways. Services include individual career counseling, resource referrals, job development, employment assistance, supportive services, follow-up services, and assistance in compiling essential documents needed to secure employment. 6. Describe how supportive services will support job retention. Supportive services are based on individual needs assessment services necessary to enable an individual to overcome barriers to pursuit and development their career goals. Supportive services may include but not limited to assistance with transportation, childcare and dependent care, housing assistance, clothing, medical and other services that are necessary to enable an individual to participate in the various activities under WIOA. Supportive services will be instrumental to ensure the success and sustainability of the P2E program through a variety of methods. Before services are provided, the OCRPU Case Management staff will meet with their respective clients and develop a resource plan. To best address their needs, case managers will utilize internal resources and/or connect the individual with both local and regional partners. Supportive services include, but are not limited to childcare, transportation, clothing, fees, and eyeglasses. Covering the cost of childcare would help ensure that individuals, both men and women, can enter in the workforce with flexible hours and increased availability in order to assist them in providing for their families. Furthermore, covering the costs of transportation is a counteractive measure against the barriers currently faced by the workforce. Potential methods include providing bus passes, gas cards, and reimbursements for metro cards in order to offset the costs of going to work. Beyond transportation, the costs for professional attire or uniform can also hinder the success of clients. For example, some individuals cannot afford to purchase mandated footwear necessary to work in construction, which prohibits them from working. The OCRPU staff will work with agencies such as Working Wardrobes and connect clients with additional financial resources to cover the costs incurred by mandated attire and footwear. Supportive services can also include covering the costs for test and licensing fees so that individuals are able to work without incurring a prior cost. Finally, should the individual lack appropriate eyewear, support services can assist in procuring glasses for the client. V. Data Collection and Evaluation The ORPU has identified the Santa Ana Workforce Development Board as the fiscal entity for the grant responsible for the collection and reporting of all program data. As part of the data collection methods, the ORPU will utilize CaIJOBS, the State of California's intemet-based case management system, to track and report all Prison to Employment outcomes. Characteristics and demographic information, activities, employment, and retention shall be tracked in CaIJOBS. Ca1JOBS is California's labor exchange system. Participants will be registered in CalJOBS with assistance from the reentry navigator upon enrollment into the program. Participants will use their login information to 1) access their resumes that were completed and uploaded by their reentry navigator; 2) access labor market information; 3) conduct job searches; and 4) research prospective employers and/or training programs. Reentry navigators will work closely with partners, particularly the OC Sheriff's Department and OC Probation, to help identify and track participants that exit the Orange County area to track the participant's continued assistance. All outcomes will be collected in CaIJOBS. The OCRPU will also coordinate closely with correction partners to track participants who may have been re - incarcerated. VI. Innovation &Sustainability 1. Describe the elements or strategies to sustain the program beyond the term of the grant and/or to develop the infrastructure to increase the scale and capacity of job placement services to the supervised population. Page 18 Prison to Employment Initiative Direct and Supportive Services Grant Orange Regional Planning Unit The OCWDB, SAWDB, and AWDB design the workforce framework and facilitate the coordination of public policy that affects workforce development issues through various local and regional initiatives. In direct relation to this program, the region will establish a formal system with other agencies including, but not limited to, housing, transportation, economic & community development and local education in order to ensure long-term sustainability of the program. These partnerships will permit access of leveraged funds and resources in order to provide the services necessary to train and upskill the population prior to entering the workforce. Furthermore, the region will promote partnerships with employers, local agencies, educational providers and the community to coordinate resources that address sustainable employment issues, hi order to assist the supervised population, attain employment, Business Services staff will work to build private -public partnerships to encourage local employers to train and hire. The region will work in coordinating workforce development activities with both the local and regional are. In addition, collaborative efforts will focus on advocating for current and future workforce needs of employers and job seekers. 2. Describe innovative approaches the program will use to draw funds from existing realignment or other sources New methods of aligning goals and services with local and regional partners will be imperative to the success of the program. The OCRPU has identified the need to co -locate with partners, which would permit Parole and Probation Officers to easily refer participants to employment services provided within their offices. This will allow for a streamline of services between. workforce and correction partners, ensuring that funding potential is maximized and efficiently expended. This approach will allow direct referrals from Parole or Probation to a workforce navigator co -located within reporting centers. Furthermore, workforce staff from the local boards will be able to participate in Parole and Probation unit meetings that will facilitate the sharing of information. The targeted population is often unprepared for employment and lack financial resources to sustain participation in training for an extended period of time. The One -Stop Systems (AJCC) in the OC Region will implement protocols that provide direct support and referrals for housing, transportation, clothing, uniforms, tools, and other necessities. In order to further leverage resources, additional partners, such as OCCCP, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), CalFresh, OC Child Support; and Adult Education Block Grant (AEGB). Realigning service strategies and resources will permit the OC Region to serve the targeted population in a greater capacity. In addition, utilizing their expertise and time, partners can further collaborate with local AJCCs in delivering workshops and trainings to better education both justice -involved job seekers and employers. 3. Describe how the program will build off of existing efforts to serve this population, create new or adapt existing approaches, and/or accelerate the application of promising practices in workforce development and skill attainment for the supervised population. The ORPU will continue exploring methods to aid the supervised population. Efforts include reaching out to local and regional partners to expand programs that assist and connect justice -involved individuals with pathways to attain self-sufficiency. Specifically, the ORPU will focus on middle skill occupation, which historically pay higher wages than the regional average. This will be particularly beneficial to individuals without a four-year college degree. It will assist increasing their overall standard of living and quality of life. AJCC staff will work closely with clients to connect them with employment opportunities in the Manufacturing, Construction, and Hospitality and Tourism sectors that are traditionally accommodating to this population. The OC Region- will work to develop a coordinated outreach effort to expand the list of businesses that have a history of hiring justice -involved individuals. AJCC staff will be knowledgeable of opportunities and incentives available for businesses who are willing to hire the target populated. As such, the OCRPU will make it a priority to work with businesses who offer jobs with good wages and benefits. The three boards, the Employment Development Department (EDD), and additional partners will collaborate and disseminate information to local businesses and partners about the various available resources, such as AB 1008 Fair Chance Hiring, the Federal Work Opportunity Tax Credit, California New Employment Tax Credit, and Federal Fidelity Bonding through the EDD state bonding services. Staff will also work with Community Page 19 Prison to Employment Initiative Direct and Supportive Services Grant Orange Regional Planning Unit Based Organizations (CBOs) and other organizations in the OC Region that provide job placement services and catalog employers that are willing to employ justice -involved population. The ORPU is currently working alongside the OCSD, OC Probation, and CDCR at the local level to identify potential opportunities to improve coordination between the three local workforce development boards, service providers, and correction partners. A potential method would involve Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) that would enhance the workforce -corrections partnership and permit staff to participate, train, and share information between CDCR, OCSD, Probation, and the OCRPU. It may also provide the opportunity to co -locate to serve the target population. Staff development is imperative to adequately serve the justice -involved population; therefore, the OC Region will work closely with partners to coordinate trainings that allow for professional development of staff. The ORPU will provide staff with the, opportunity to attend trainings provided by partners, such as the National Institute of Corrections trainings, and cultural sensitivity training that are required to ensure that staff remain updated and are aware of best practices and skills needed when working with the reentry population. Beyond the previously mentioned efforts, enhancing the Multi -Core Curriculum (MC3) would also be impactful to serve this population. The OC Region currently collaborates with Coastline Community College and Santa Ana Community College in order to support MC3. As courses become available, the local AJCC conducts outreach efforts in order to educate job seekers and assists in filling the seats available. The AJCC personnel is instrumental in the initial review of potential candidates and helps to ensure that they qualify for the program. Career Advisors undertake the targeted population in determining the best next steps in order to attain employment that will lead to self-sufficiency. 4. Identify additional sources of funding that may be accessed to supplement the funds provided by this grant and describe how regional partners will work in concert to access those fund In order to account for the variety of resources that will be necessary for effective program implementation, the three local workforce boards will collaborate with partners to supplement funds provided by this grant. Beyond application of the previously mentioned methods, the three local boards will look into additional avenues to supplement costs. The region will pursue funding to address underserved targeted populations in the workforce development area. The region will also look into building future partnerships with additional government departments. Aligning goals with Public Safety departments will assist in potentially accessing funds and services that seek to address similar issues. Public Safety works with these individual prior and post release, investment of either their time and/or funding would only further improve the opportunities for success.

We are committed to work in collaboration with the Orange County Development Board, the Santa Ana Workforce .Development Board, and the Anaheim Workforce Development Board, along with other named partners, to facilitate the Prison to Employment program. We have served the justice -involved population for over 25 years and have successfully developed curriculum targeted specifically to the incarcerated, recently released, and both In - and out -of -custody job seeker. We are able to provide case management, workforce readiness training, job training, and soft skills modules to assist the men and women with multiple barriers to employment. We also offerjob development services and placement assistance with numerous employer partners. Our wardrobe services are the final touch. In December of 2018, we concluded a two-year commitment to the Orange County Development board to facilitate the LEAP2 program for incarcerated women in the Orange County Women's Jail and the Intake and Release Center. We served 96 women and provided job training; workforce readiness and soft skills training along with job placement services. Prior to that, we served over 200 recently incarcerated youth (18--24) through the Division of Juvenile Justice with similar workforce readiness services. We strongly support the application for the Prison to Employment program and look forward to working with our county and city partners to achieve success.

If awarded, funding would provide critical resources; enabling the region to better serve the formerly -incarcerated. The initiative will succeed by fostering partnerships between the local workforce development system, CDCR and parole, County Probation, community -based organizations (CEOs) like ours —along with a range of other partners coming togetherto serve the formerly incarcerated and justice -involved local population. Chrysalis has been serving the reentry community for 35 years as a non-profit organization dedicated to creating a pathway to self-sufficiency for homeless and low -Income individuals by providing the resources and support needed to find and retain employment. At Chrysalis, we empower our clients to overcome their barriers to employment and complete a self -directed job search. In fall 2018, Chrysalis opened its first location in Orange County, located in Anaheim. Leading up to opening, and since, the local workforce development and reentry services community has welcomed us with open arms. We are thrilled to be a part of this innovative community and to do our part to meet the needs of local residents. As part of the proposed partnership, Chrysalis agrees to provide the following services to eligible participants: one-on-one case management focused on securing employment; • job readiness classes, resume preparation, and interview skills training; • resources related to participants' job search, including interview clothing, transportation assistance, computer lab access, and phone bank use; and • transitional job opportunities, as available, through our Chrysalis Enterprises program.
