DISCUSSION
Since 2018, the California Workforce Development Board (CWDB), the State of
California’s agent for the oversight and continuous improvement of California’s
workforce development system, has engaged in a formal partnership with the California
Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) and California Prison Industry
Authority (CalPIA) with the goal of improving labor market outcomes of the state’s
justice-involved and formerly incarcerated populations.
The CWDB is providing State general funds for the implementation of regional programs
to serve the formerly incarcerated and other justice-involved individuals in California.
This funding is referred to as the Prison to Employment (P2E) 2.0 grant. The
Corrections-Workforce Partnership, which is a multi-agency effort, seeks to provide the
state’s 15 Regional Planning Units (RPUs) with resources that will enable them to better
serve this population by fostering partnerships between RPUs, CDCR reentry service
providers, CDCR Division of Adult Parole Operations, CDCR Division of Rehabilitative
Programs, county probation departments, employers, and community-based
organizations (CBOs). The Prison to Employment (P2E) 2.0 program is intended to
support regional efforts, and provide resources for direct employment and supportive
services to the formerly incarcerated and other justice-involved individuals
P2E 2.0 funds were awarded to the Orange RPU. Serving 34 cities and multiple large
unincorporated areas in Orange County, the Orange RPU collaborates with partners to
build on the region’s strengths, address challenges, and expand opportunities for
community members and businesses that fuel economic vitality. The Orange RPU

leads the region’s vision for a future-ready workforce that is better skilled, trained, and
prepared to keep industries competitive, communities thriving, and the economy
growing. The Orange RPU is composed of the City of Anaheim, County of Orange, and
the City of Santa Ana Workforce Development Boards (WDBs). As it pertains to this
grant, the City of Santa Ana will be the fiscal agent.
In April, the City received notice that the Orange RPU was awarded a total of
$927,341.16. The P2E grant requires a partnership with community-based
organizations (CBOs) that serve the formerly incarcerated and other justice-involved
individuals, and reentry service providers. Memorandums of Understanding are
encouraged with the CDCR’s Division of Adult Parole Operations, County Probation,
and other reentry providers. Staff is preparing to procure workforce services to
implement the strategies authorized in the grant and will bring agreements back to the
City Council for approval in the near future.
The Prison to Employment grant intends to serve a minimum of 84 individuals who were
formerly incarcerated or under County Probation or State Parole supervision.
Depending on the outcome of a workforce strategies assessment, individuals will be
served through on the job training, or vocational training that leads to industry
recognized certificates, or direct placement by using a wraparound case management
coordinated with CBOs and the region’s three Workforce Development Boards.
Coordination of referrals will take place at pre-release at county jails and post release
through deployment of staff at probation and parole offices located throughout the
county.
