For the past three years, the Santa Ana W/O/R/K Center has received
funding from the County of Orange Social Services Agency to operate a
Community Services Program (CSP). The Social Services Agency (SSA) has
awarded the W/O/R/K Center $65,000 to continue providing services to
CalWORKs recipients who have reached their maximum time limit on public
assistance and remain unemployed. In December 2003 SSA funded a work
experience program for $200,000 to provide subsidized employment to
CalWORKs participants. SSA has awarded the W/O/R/K Center an additional
$200,000 to continue the Work Experience Program. This program will
assist CalWORKs participants to develop skills that will enable them to
find and retain stable employment.
