SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIOWS):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Administrator, or designee, to accept a grant award from
the Zellerbach Family Fund in the amount of$201,599 for Bay Point Works and the North Richmond
Employment Collaborative.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Supplements available Federal, State and County funding to support employment services in the
communities of Bay Point and North Richmond by $201,599 in the coming year.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(Sl:
Existing resources available to the communities of Bay Point and North Richmond in the area of
employment are limited by categorical funding streams that often restrict eligibility based on income
or other exclusive criteria. In addition, resources are not available to fill service gaps and forge links
among existing services to create a seamless employment services system. This grant will support
services to (1)those unemployed and under-employed individuals whose needs are not provided for
under existing Federal, State and County funding sources; (2) provide the types of supports and
services needed by all unemployed and under-employed individuals, but not sufficiently covered by
other existing sources; and (3) build indigenous community capacity to provide comprehensive
community-wide employment services over the IoL-term.
