CWIQ
DATE'. April 8, 1986 COU*
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZING SUBMISSION OF JTPA TITLE III APPLICATION TO STATE JOB TRAINING
COORDINATING COUNCIL
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(.S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. Recommended Action:
Authorize the Executive Director, Contra Costa County Private Industry
Council, to execute and submit on behalf of the County, an application to
the State Job Training Coordinating Council requesting approximately
$313,600 in federal funds under the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA)
Title III for the period beginning not later than April 15, 1986 and ending
March 31, 1987 to operate a Dislocated Workers Program for approximately
150 workers to be laid off from Montgomery Ward Credit Center in Walnut
Creek.
II. Financial Impact:
None. 100 Percent federal funds.
III. Reasons For Recommendation/Background:
A process of workforce reduction has been announced by Montgomery Ward
Credit Center in Walnut Creek.
The Contra Costa County Private Industry Council, in coordination with its
Worker's Assistance Center (contracted with Worldwide Educational Services,
Inc.), has discussed the feasibility of providing dislocated worker
services under Title III of the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) with
representatives from Montgomery Ward Credit Center in Walnut Creek.
Since Contra Costa County has already committed the Title III funds
previously allocated to the County by the State of California, a separate
grant request must be made to the State Job Training Coordinating Council
for additional Title III funds.
This proposal would provide for On-the-job Training and/or Job Search
Training and Job Placement for approximately 150 Title III eligible workers
to be terminated by Montgomery Ward Credit Center.
