governing body.
B. The Contractor shall prevent its officers, agents, employees, consultants or members of

of being, motivated by a desire for private gain for themselves or others such as those
with whom they have family, business or other ties.
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

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 Economic Interests, Form 700. The Contractor agrees that if the Director of

Orange Regional Planning Unit
Narrative
I. 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 6,555.1. 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 2,68C parolees. The Orange
County Probation Department (OC Probation) oversaw a total supervised population of 10,542.3, probationers as of
September 2018. The Orange County Sheriff's Department (OCSD) had 56,7264, 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 a Enrollment in Training: 22 Pre -Release; 10 Post -
Entered Employment Post -Release: 52 Release
• Entered Employment Post -Release: 24
Torward 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
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_'

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.

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 Sheriff's Department (OCSD)_. The OCSD will incorporate the P2E project.in the jails to screen
eligible candidates. The OC Region operated a jail -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 joint 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.

Education Partners:. 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).
III. 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 j ob 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/OJT9 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.
Thru 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 All 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 4
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 trainings 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 orlow-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, SAWDB, AWDB
and its partners in addressing employment for populations affected by Intellectual Disability (113) 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 amonthly basis in order to introduce their services. DOR utilizes these events to present information
for On -the -Jab 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.

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 2518 P2E
RFA #84049 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 can strengthen 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
Page 17 when determining which services and training to provide as well as how to best position individuals for job
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 CalJOBS, 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 CalJOBS. CalJOBS 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 Ca1JOBS. 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. In 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.
s. 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 hiringjustice-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 buildingfuture 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.

Dear Ms. Lacy,
Working Wardrobes for a New Start is a non-profit organization located in Irvine, CA, that
empowers men, women, young adults, and veterans overcoming difficult challenges to
confidently enter the workforce and achieve 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 offer job 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.
