DISCUSSION
At the May 25, 2022 special meeting of the Workforce Development Board by a vote of
13:0 (Gail Araujo, David Elliott and Robert Ruiz absent), the Board recommended the
above action for council approval.
In order to establish a high quality America’s Job Centers of California (AJCC) delivery
system and enhance collaboration among partner programs, Workforce Innovation and
Opportunity Act (WIOA) requires Local Workforce Boards to develop Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU’s) with a list of AJCC required partners within the Local Workforce
Area. These MOU’s will serve as a functional tool as well as a plan for how the Local
Board and AJCC partners will work together to create a unified service delivery system
that best meets the needs of their shared customers. WIOA does not require all partners
to be physically co-located at the AJCC but those that do co-locate they are required to
share in the operational costs. Currently the city, Employment Development Department,
Department of Rehabilitation, SER Jobs for Progress, County of Orange Social Services

Agency, and Santa Ana Housing Authority are co-located at the Santa Ana WORK Center
and share the operation costs that is calculated based on square footage of occupancy
by each agency and is outlined in Attachment 3 of the MOU agreement.
The current partner MOU’s will expire at the end of this fiscal year. Typically, the term
would be for three years but because the master AJCC office lease expires next year, the
city attorney advised a one-year term. When the new lease details are finalized, the MOU
exhibits will be updated to reflect the shared costs of the one stop system and then return
to City Council approval (Exhibit 1 and 2).
