Success the committee has had in the past twelve month. Challenges the committee has struggled with in the past twelve months. The planning session lacked quorum with four members participating in the session. Invitation to review information covered and includes additional member s concerns and suggestions of what members feel we should be addressing in our efforts. Recommendation: Members should review Action Planning items discussed at the session to be considered by the committee for action. Need Identified: Stay focused with continued member participation and engagement while also considering if changes to meeting times, frequency or structure are necessary to increase participation and ensure that everyone s voice is being valued. Discussion: Committee vacancies will be filled per requirements under the Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA) which requires that the majority of Board membership be comprised of individuals from the business sector. Need Identified: Quorum requirements are dependent on having appointed members that attend, participate and do the work. The Working Groups also provides the opportunity to identify community stakeholders or interested individuals to weigh in and have input. Action planning to address secondary education partnership to bridge gaps. This includes new members to the WIB Committees and starting a conversation between OUSD Superintendent s representative in the Employer Strategies committee and the Youth Council representatives to engage business and youth. Need for clarification: Jobs for youth served was made possible through leveraged funding as well as the need for additional partnerships to serve youth that were eager to work but did not qualify to participate. 4 P a g e

5 Item #4: Youth Council Work Groups ed by Ricardo Quezada Recommendation to discuss outreach and community partnerships in West Oakland: First meeting was held February 4, 2015 with four of five members participating in the meeting. Discussed history of West Oakland Work Groups, concern over its inactivity and the need for increasing capacity in the area. Need Identified: A clear purpose to develop solutions for providing direct services to West Oakland neighborhoods. Need Identified: Develop partnerships that target underserve populations of West Oakland. Work Group members will coordinate and develop a calendar of meetings with objectives of the group. WIB Director clarified his role in participating in the Work Group. He met with the Committee Co-Chair prior to the meeting to discuss that because this was a work group that as an outcome to the Youth Council initiative, he did not feel it appropriate to sit in on the convening and does not intend to facilitate the work so that the WG has an opportunity to do its work and bring it back to the Youth Council. The goal is to participate as it comes to the Youth Council. Co-Chair expressed the intention of the meeting was for WG members to gain a common understanding of mission and objectives and that WG meeting would be open to the public. WIB Director provided clarification by stating that the WG is appointed by the committee and approved by the Chair to represent the interest of the community. These are not public notice meetings, therefore the WG meetings are not open to the public Decisions made to open WG meetings to the public must be public noticed so that all members of the community have equal opportunity to participate as opposed to individuals invited. Discussed the intention, naming and the definitions of the Work Groups, the Youth Council Work Group will continue to be identified as the West Oakland Work Group. Interested parties providing services in an area cannot be restricted; legislation does not prohibit the conversation about building capacity in the area. Speaker: Michele Clark, Director of Youth Employment Partnership (YEP), stated that West Oakland has struggled to build a training community and supports West Oakland developing its own experts, including her agency which provided services through a West Oakland agency in the past.. Item #5: RFP Strategies for Serving Youth ed by Ricardo Quezada Discussed aligning the system with the changes to legislation under the Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA) through an RFP process: Explanation of changes to the population served, reporting and performance measures. 5 P a g e

6 Intention of this item is that all committees recognize that there is a tight time frame and the goal is to take advantage of these meetings to gather any input possible regarding how we move forward with the processing and structuring of the RFP. Nonetheless, WIOA will guide the shaping of our workforce development system as discussed at the WIB retreat and the special meeting with Bob Lantern. Opportunities will continue to be available for public, committee and Youth Council input on the RFP development process. Recommendation: Special meetings may be necessary once details of the act are released by Department of Labor and the State and should include the RFP timeline. The RFP timeline has been published and provided to all members including two meetings for this purpose of discussing WIOA, the law and the implications on the system going forward. WIB staff invited a representative from a State organization that was developing and training statewide to come personally and inform the WIB members on the changes within the new legislation (WIOA) and member participation was limited. He agreed to come back and do a separate session for the Youth Council as part of his commitment which also had limited participation. WIOA will be the cornerstone of what our strategies are going forward and staff will continue to present and agendize updates to the implementation of the legislation. Suggestion: To have additional discussions regarding the development of RFP, strategies for serving youth and changes in WIOA such as Contra Costa WIB s Earn it and Learn It and STEM programs which engages local business representation geared towards youth. Action was not recommended. Item #6: YSP Performance Corrective Action Report ed by Ricardo Quezada An explanation was provided regarding the system s performance outcomes as well as the process for attaining results from the State to the committee: Initial training and technical assistance on CalJOBS is provided to the Youth Service Providers. Results from the State shows that the system currently is failing the three performance measures: : 1) Placement in Employment, Education or Advanced Training; 2) Literacy and Numeracy Gains; and 3) Attainment of Degree or Certificate Data was analyzed and questions regarding exit cohorts were submitted for further clarification from the State. The State confirmed performance outcome results were correct. WIB Staff is in the process of meeting with the providers to implement a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) that requires ongoing communication with the Youth Service Providers as well as training and technical assistance. Assistance has been requested from the State in the form of training opportunities to improve understanding of 6 P a g e

7 performance, CalJOBS, case management and system outcomes. OWIB leadership has conducted individual communication with the Executive Directors of each Youth Service Provider to discuss the need for agencies to participate in trainings and develop systems included in the CAP to improve outcomes. Staff will do everything possible to ensure provider success including bringing DOL and EDD to assist in training and technical assistance. Staff will continue providing technical assistance and believe that the work is being done. The CalJOBS system has rigid timelines and failure to report appropriately and in a timely manner leads to negative impact on performance. Failure to perform may lead to the loss of Workforce Investment Area designation. Explanation of performance data and lag in State reporting. Review of the system s performance has been vigilant and ongoing by the System Leadership committee. At this time no additional staff will be considered. Invoice reimbursement, performance, RFP and completing a budget are the existing priorities. Discussed the meeting with DOL and EDD to share OWIB s staff plan to move forward. Staff is exploring opportunities to include regional collaborations and including inviting other WIBs to participate in the DOL and EDD training. Speaker: Michele Clarke, Director of YEP, shared history of her organization and presented her interpretation of the cause for the system s current performance which she associates are positive outcomes which were allowed to Soft Exit by the PIC, when it was the system administrator, delayed release of contracts and youth electronic files that were updated at a time when Youth Service Providers did not have access to CalJOBS. Kathy Chao Rothberg, Director Lao Family Community Development, agreed with the prior analysis of the cause for the current performance. Speaker: Carrol Fiff, Community Member, voiced concern regarding the possibility of losing funding. OWIB Director shared that the letters sent to the providers were agency specific based on analysis of the services provided and performance outcomes. Also, that the question was how to present the data to the body and the community. The decision was made to present in total with all the possibilities. DOL and the State s meeting with OWIB requesting that staff gather information from the Youth Service Providers as to the assistance each agency needs so that the training is tailor made to fit the needs of the entire system and expanding the training to the region demonstrates their investment in our success. DOL and EDD will provide a two-phase training with a session being targeted for front line staff by EDD on CalJOBS and a second session by DOL and EDD on performance targeted towards Executive Directors and staff. EDD is willing to give us an open window to present information that documents the positive attainment of performance outcomes if it s within the past open quarters. Clarifying the position of presenting performance information to the Youth Council and the Executive committees which included the full range of issues and possibilities, because one of the possibilities if we don t retain positive outcomes from previously Soft Exited participants could be that the State Board could make adjustments about our funding. OWIB is working with DOL, EDD and now the Youth Service Providers to prevent that from happening. 7 P a g e

8 A range of possibilities was presented based on system performance and actions taken to avoid reaching to the extreme of those options. Item #7: Youth Council Meeting Calendar Review ed by Ricardo Quezada Suggestion was made to consider increasing the frequency of meetings due to current performance and lack of participation at the meetings: The calendar of meetings was presented demonstrating six Youth Council meetings, monthly Youth Service Provider meetings, Work Group meetings and additional trainings as was previously discussed with DOL and EDD. Discussed frequency of meetings and need to discuss the RFP, youth summer jobs and adoption of the new legislation. Questions were raised regarding the summer jobs program status. Meeting with the Mayor will determine direction for some of these items. Need Identified: Meeting effectiveness should be evaluated as opposed increasing frequency. Increasing frequency would not encourage additional participation for some members. Suggestion to have meetings that correlate with time specific activities such as the release of the RFP, summer jobs program and WIOA implementation. Effectiveness and purpose of meetings should be clear and if the committee decides to increase frequency, it should be clear that doing so as a one-time decision to address the current items or it is ongoing to be mindful of everyone s schedule. Concern raised on the committee s inability to meet quorum requirements in the last two meetings. Concern expressed over staff s current responsibilities and ability to be successful. Explanation of the process that includes planning and preparing for committee meetings to ensure that the process meets City s compliance requirements. OWIB Director suggested that the body be in favor of stronger more focused meetings. So that the committee gets more business done during the allocated time. Keeping open the option to increase meeting time in the event that additional time is needed. Members should commit that during this time we do business that generates direction for staff and the Council. He is not in favor of increasing meetings to do what we are doing and is concerned of member s participation with very busy schedules. The group should also consider that except for a few members, many are members to the full WIB and have a mandate to participate in those meetings. Also, the staff will do what it must to support the committee s decision. Review times of meetings to ensure they align with important activities. Suggestion to be more strategic during the meetings. Item #8: Youth Council member Announcements No discussion. Open Forum No discussion. 8 P a g e

13 MEMORANDUM To: Oakland WIB Executive Committee From: John R. Bailey, Executive Director Date: May 13, 2015 Re: PROPOSED FY WIB Youth Service Provider Budget Allocations Summary Staff is requesting that the Youth Council take action regarding Youth Service Provider allocations for FY , and is presenting two options for consideration in this memorandum. The proposed Workforce Investment Board (WIB) budget for FY is shown as Attachment A. Overall, the Oakland WIB is facing a reduction of $1,065,000 in revenues this year compared to last year due to the absence of unobligated carry-forward funding to augment our regular Formula Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funding of $4,628,338. Whereas we budgeted $1,983,729 for youth activities and support for FY , in FY we have $1,603,729 in youth funding to work with. That represents a reduction of $380,000, or 19%. Staff recognizes that the demand to enable our youth and young adults to become gainfully employed increases, and that funding to meet that growing demand is diminishing, specifically with regard to our WIA funding. WIA Youth formula funding has gone down from a high of $1,785,300 in FY to a projected $1,603,729 in FY Table 1 illustrates the decline in overall Youth Formula and carry-forward funding from FY to date. Youth Service Provider Performance In a performance report released by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) in the fall of 2014, Oakland failed all three youth performance measures that covered the period of participants exiting the program in FY With support from DOL and the State Employment Development Department (EDD), WIB staff convened an all-day training on youth performance measures and CalJOBS the State s mandated performance tracking system. Staff also provided numerous one-on-one training and technical assistance sessions with service providers at their sites and by phone. More service provider support is needed to ensure our System s performance improves, including consideration to allocate some youth funding for technical assistance for all providers that are struggling to meet and exceed performance benchmarks. 13 P a g e

This measure is proposed to be replaced under WIOA. FY Youth Revenue The overall decline in budgeted funding for youth in FY compared to FY is $380,000. The only funds projected for Youth in FY are Formula funds at an estimated amount of $1,603,729. We will not get the exact figures from the State until sometime in late April or early May.

20 Staff is working with Youth Radio and Youth UpRising on the development of detailed Corrective Action Plans (CAPs) intended to improve performance in all areas.

23 MEMORANDUM To: Oakland WIB Youth Council From: John R. Bailey, Executive Director Date: May 13, 2015 Re: Summer Program Funding Recommendations Per City Council Resolution No C.M.S., the Oakland WIB is authorized to approve the disbursement of funds for the Mayor s Summer Jobs Program to contracted youth service providers without the need for staff to return to the City Council for approval. While Mayor Schaaf has directed staff to develop an internship-focused summer and yearround program model called Classrooms 2 Careers, the legislation remains in effect regarding disbursement of summer program funds. Oakland Housing Authority Grant The Oakland Housing Authority (OHA) Board of Directors has again approved a $450,000 grant to serve 260 OHA residents between the ages of 16 and 21. The program model includes a total of 20 hours of per-employment and job retention training, and 100 hours of paid work experience at the City s new minimum wage rate of $12.25/hr. The OHA grant pays service providers a flat fee of $500 per participant for Program and Administrative support, and up to $1,225 for youth wages. Any costs above and beyond the $1,725 per participant, such as training incentives and bonuses, mandatory withholding taxes, and other program costs must be borne by the service providers. Staff is recommending that we go with the same three service providers that opted in to the OHA grant last year, and disburse summer program funds using a pro-rated formula based on the number of OHA slots each agency is getting. The WIA funds are intended to provide operating support for allowable summer youth activities in conjunction with year-round services, which may include defraying the costs not covered by the OHA grant. The miscellaneous funds are also intended to help defray the costs not covered by the OHA grant. Any funds above and beyond those needed to cover all costs associated with the OHA grant must be used to create new summer program opportunities for youth ages 16-21, including work experience, stipended internships, service-learning and the like. Note the Miscellaneous Allocations are not guaranteed. They will be disbursed based upon the approval of the Office of the Mayor and availability of funds. The WIB s authorization to disburse these funds is essential to receive now for purposes of program responsiveness. 23 P a g e

24 Following is a table of recommended OHA service and summer program funding allocation levels: 2015 PROPOSED SUMMER PROGRAM ALLOCATIONS LFCD YEP YU TOTALS OHA MSJP GRANT ALLOCATIONS Number of OHA Youth Proposed: Total Proposed cost to OHA: $172,500 $172,500 $103,500 $448,500 Pro-rata share: 38.46% 38.46% 23.08% 100% FY WIA ALLOCATIONS WIA Youth One Stop Cost: $38,462 $38,462 $23,077 $100,000 MISCELLANEOUS MSJP ALLOCATIONS* Recommended First-Wave Allocations: $15,385 $15,385 $9,231 $40,000 Not-to-Exceed Allocations: $38,462 $38,462 $23,077 $100,000 Sub-Totals: $226,346 $226,346 $135,808 $588,500 * Note the Miscellaneous MSJP fund allocations are not guaranteed. Per City Council fund distribution authorization, the WIB must approve the disbursement of MSJP funds to contracted youth service providers. Staff is recommending these not-to-exceed fund disbursements in the event the City raises $100,000. The proposed distribution of funds is based on agency capacity estimates derived from the allocation of OHA MSJP slots, which the agencies proposed. Staff requests that the Youth Council approve the recommendations for fund disbursement levels reflected in the 2015 Proposed Summer Program Allocations worksheet above. Thank you. 24 P a g e
