Information
Referral History:
On December 13, 2011 the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 2011/497 adopting policy governing appointments to boards, committees, and commissions that are advisory to the Board of Supervisors. Included in this resolution was a requirement that applications for at large/countywide seats be reviewed by a Board of Supervisors sub-committee.

The Workforce Development Board (WDB) was created on pursuant to the Federal Workforce Investment Act of 1998 and has the responsibility for overall workforce investment policy, mandated workforce investment policy and oversight of the One-Stop Career Center system. The WDB implements federal requirements for programs to address the education, skills, and employment needs for a skilled workforce, and that lead to an increase in the skills and earnings of Contra Costa residents.

January 21, 2016, the Executive Committee of the local Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) board met and approved a recommended WIOA Board configuration, subsequently approved by the Board of Supervisors on March 29, 2016. The new configuration resulted in a 25 member board, which includes two alternate seats. Term appointments are for four years. Currently, there are 20 filled seats and 5 vacant seats, two of which have an application pending appointment approval as requested below.
Referral Update:
Please see the attached memo from the Employment and Human Services Department, which details their request to fill two of the current five vacant seats.
