Applicant Name: Weld County Division of Human Resources B. Priority Area and Title of Project: 1.3.A WIN-HDS Coordination - Job Opportunities Employment Opportunities in Child Care for Welfare Recipients C. Project Summary: The applicant proposes to operate a 12 month training program that will enhance the employment opportunities of individuals who are receiving and/or being diverted from Aid To Families With Dependent Children (AFDC). The cost to operate the training program is $50,000. The applicant currently operates the Employment Opportunities Delivery System (EODS) which is a composite of numerous federal and state employment and training programs. The applicant also runs the Weld County Head Start Program. This project will bring together the EODS and Head Start Programs in a coordinated effort to develop a training program to place welfare recipients in unsubsidized child care jobs with salarys that are equal to the prevailing wage rate in the community. There will be 25 welfare recipients who will be trained via classroom and on-the-job training to be able to perform in accordance with the acceptable employment standards required for an entry level child care provider. During the course of the training, the EODS program will provide a salary to the welfare recipients and they will be diverted from the welfare program immediately. The EODS program will also enter into a purchase of service agreement with the local area Chamber of Commerce to recruit employers for all program participants. The recruitment of employers will also be supported by the Private Industry Council . It is projected that 70% of the program participants will enter employment in the private sector and no longer be dependent upon public assistance. • The Head Start Program will provide for the training of the participants in an actual child care facility. The instructor will be provided by the local community college. The program participants will learn by way of "hands on" experience. Upon completion of the project, the applicant will have a fully documented training program that can be replicated. The training program will demonstrate how to successfully coordinate federal programs for a common goal , how to train individuals for entry level child care positions , and how to involve members of the private sector employment field in an effort to reduce the welfare caseload. 5 IV. Program Narrative A. Need For The Project: In 1975, Weld County, Colorado created the Division of Human Resources in an effort to coordinate Human Services programs and thereby better address the needs of the community. By combining the Human Service programs under one administrative structure, Weld County has been able to serve the needs of the entire family unit. A complete listing of the Human Services Programs run by the Weld County Division of Human Resources is identified in the Organizational Capability Statement on Page 14. The Weld County Division of Human Resources has been the administering agency for all employment and training programs in Weld County since 1975. In 1979, Weld County, Colorado became involved in a special employment and training program for individuals who are on welfare. The program entitled Welfare Diversion has been successful in diverting individuals from the welfare system and into the workforce. This program is implemented through an 1115 Waiver from the Social Security Administration and two (2) major legislative law changes in the State of Colorado. The Welfare Diversion Program is designed to assist low-income individuals who are applying for, or receiving welfare, obtain unsubsidized employment. The premise for the program is based on the point that given the opportunity to work, an individual will select work over welfare. On March 1, 1985, the Aid To Families With Dependent Children - Unemployed Parent was discontinued in Colorado. Since that time, diverting the single parent from the welfare system has become the focus of the program. Unfortunately, as the Employment Opportunities Delivery System (EODS) has concentrated its employment and training efforts on the single parent, the provision of low cost quality child care has risen to the surface as a weakness in the system. Weld County has been able to successfully divert individuals from public assistance to jobs. However, in an effort to find the appropriate training and employment for the welfare mother, the rising cost of child care has been a prohibitive factor in keeping the mother in the job. The Private Industry Council (PIC) has formulated a special task force to deal with the problems arising from the child 6 fTh r care issue. The identification of a trained child care work force was a major factor discovered lacking within the Weld County area. In response to the child care issue, Human Resources' EODS and Head Start Programs undertook a joint special project in the spring of 1985. The two programs designed a sixteen (16) week classroom/on-the-job-training project that trained individuals being diverted from welfare to become qualified for entry level child care jobs. The project was a success and 70% of the individuals who completed the program were placed in unsubsidized child care jobs. Weld County is proposing to expand upon the previously successful pilot project and develop a permanent training facility within the Head Start Program. As in the pilot project, all individuals enrolled in the training would be clients who are being diverted from the welfare rolls into the work force. The Private Industry Council has also recommended an employer recruitment effort be incorporated into the proposed training program. The proposed project will address the priority need area of 1.3.A. The combination of a successful training program for child care workers and an equally successful employer recruitment campaign should make an impact into the growing child care need in Weld County. If welfare mothers are eliminated from public assistance, placed in jobs, and expected to retain the job, then low cost quality child care must be made available. If the low cost quality child care isn't made available, then the only alternative is for the welfare mother to remain on public assistance. B. Expected Outcomes: Based on the success of the pilot project that was previously sponsored by EODS and Head Start, the following results are anticipated: 1. The program will successfully divert 25 individuals from welfare and place 70% in unsubsidized positions. The cost per placement will be $2,777.00. The program will draw upon the clients who apply for and are found eligible by the Weld County Department of 7 Social Services for the category of Aid To Families With Dependent Children. These twenty-five (25) individuals will be enrolled in and receive a wage from the Welfare Diversion and Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) Programs. 2. The Private Industry Council will mount a recruitment of local employers who will serve as the employer base for the clients diverted from welfare to the workforce. The Private Industry Council (PIC) is especially aware of the unique problems found by the single parent households and has begun to address these issues. This high level of involvement from the Private Industry Council will , as it has in the past, translate into creative approaches to the problems, identification, integration, and focusing of resources (public, private, and private non-profit), and most important of all , JOBS. 3. The Head Start Program will provide the facility and the on-the-job training opportunities for the clients, thereby successfully reducing the Head Start staff costs and maintaining a high staff to child ratio. 4. The local community college will provide the instructional training program as outlined in an approved Vocational Education - 220 proposal . The individuals who successfully complete the program will receive 25 hours of college credit and a vocational certificate. 5. The program will extensively document the coordination efforts of EODS, Head Start, Social Services and the local community college. The Private Industry Council (PIC) will serve as the program monitor. The PIC will document the program's progress and make recommendations throughout the duration for improvement. An end product of the project will be the release of a special report by the PIC that will address the cost savings brought about by close coordination between all the programs involved. Cost savings will be documented in the area of welfare savings by utilizing the formula subscribed in the existing 1115 Waiver. The special report will also identify the methods used by Weld County in an effort to encourage the program's replication in other areas of the country. The report will be provided to the grant funding source, Colorado Governor's Job Training Office, The Regional Office for ACYF, The Private Industry Council , and local elected officials. 8 �? +""1 6. If the project is successful , it will become a permanent training program offered by EODS. C. Project Methodology: 1.

Based on the data analysis, the Private Industry Council will make recommendations for the future directions of the program. 12 7. Progress of the Project: As related earlier, this project was tested on a small scale in the spring of 1985. The succession of steps related in the goal statements are a result of the pilot project wherein 70% of the individuals who completed the project were placed in jobs. The Private Industry Council will issue their recommendations for the program's direction on a quarterly basis. It is anticipated that the direct involvement of the private sector will enable the program to remain flexible and capable of adjusting to recommended changes. With the pilot project as a guideline and with the direct involvement of the Private Industry Council , it is anticipated the project objectives will be fulfilled. D. Level of Effort: A detailed budget summary (description of services and categories) was provided in Part III , Budget Information. The budget summary also identifies the staff members needed. The full time trainer must be an accredited vocational education instructor and the 1/3 time employment technician must specialize in vocational counseling and job placement. The trainer will be responsible for the training of the participants in an actual child care facility. The program participants will learn by way of "hands on" experience. The Employment Technician will work with the clients to identify their needs, resolve potential employment barriers, and assist in the identification of placement opportunities for the clients. E. Utilization and Dissemination: This area was covered in Section B, Item 5. 13 Organizational Capability Statement The Weld County Division of Human Resources is a multi-purpose department which has been delegated the authority of administering human service programs for the Weld County Board of Commissioners. The principal goal of Human Resources is to provide comprehensive services to the entire age spectrum of clients in a coordinated and efficient manner. Since 1974, Human Resources has grown from a small department of three (3) human service programs to fourteen (14) major programs with multi-funding sources. The specific programs include the following: Employment Opportunities Delivery System [Job Training Partnership Act(JTPA) , the Job Service of Colorado, the Welfare Diversion Program, Project Self-Sufficiency, and- Community Work Experience Program (CWEP)], Head Start, Migrant Head Start, Supplemental Foods, Area Agency on Aging, Senior Nutrition, Seniors Serving Industry, Senior Aide Program, Transportation, and Weatherization. Through the growth and development of these programs, Human Resources has had the opportunity to provide leadership in many areas. Some of these include: 504 Handicapped Accessibility Compliance, Welfare Diversion Program, Medigap Disclosure Form, Hispanic Initiative, Seniors Serving Industry Program, and a rural Senior Aide Program. The overall objective of Human Resources is to provide programs and services to address the social/welfare needs of residents in Weld County. Available local , state, and federal resources are focused on the goal of enabling low-income families and low-income of all ages, in rural and urban areas, to attain the skills, knowledge, motivations , and opportunities needed for them to become fully self-sufficient. The administration for Human Resources is centralized and controlled through an Administrative Unit. The Administrative Unit functions under the Executive Director and assists program directors in the administrative function of their programs. By combining administrative duties and assigning them to a unit specifically designed to handle them, the Division's program directors are free to run their programs, the administrative costs for each program are reduced and more dollars reach the clients through increased services. In the specific area of employment, Human Resources previously administered the CETA Program and currently has administrative responsibility for a comprehensive employment program called EODS or Employment Opportunities Delivery System. As such, the agency has had extensive experience delivering employment services to veterans, migrant workers, youth, displaced homemakers , welfare recipients, senior citizens; economically disadvantaged, etc. In the specific area of Head Start, the program has been growing steadily throughout the years. Currently 300 children per year participate in the ACYF Head Start. In the summer of 1985, Head Start also ran the IMPD Migrant Head Start Program and over 200 children were served. 14 n r PART V ASSURANCES The Applicant hereby assures and certifies that he will comply with the regulations, policies, guidelines and requirements, including 45 CFR Part 74, and OMB Circulars No. A-102 and A-110, as they relate to the application,acceptance and use of Federal funds for this federally-assisted project.Also the Appli- cant assures and certifies to the grant that: 1.
