DISCUSSION
The Workforce Investment Act (WIA) of 1998 provides funds to Local Workforce Investment Areas
(LWIA) to operate job-training programs for adults, dislocated workers and youth who meet
specific criteria as outlined in the Act. The City of Santa Ana was designated as an LWIA and
administrative entity on January 28, 2000, by the State Workforce Investment Board. Santa Ana
has received WIA funds to operate job-training programs since July 1, 2000.
On August 1, 2011, City Council approved an appropriation adjustment in the WIA budget to
reflect approved allocations from the State of California for Program Year (PY) 2011-12. On
November 17, 2011, the State of California released amended WIA formula allocations for PY
2011-12. The allocation amendment increases Santa Ana's WIA Adult funds by an additional
$111,314 and WIA Dislocated Worker funds by an additional $92,952, totaling $204,266.
Ten percent of the total ($20,426) will be used for program administration as allowed by WIA
regulations. Actual additional amounts to be allocated to the WIA Adult program are $100,183
and $83,657 to the Dislocated Worker program. These funds will be used to provide vocational
training, supportive services, skills assessment, and on-the-job training to Work Center clients.
