APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, on behalf of the Workforce Development Board of Contra Costa, to execute a contract with the State of California Employment Development Department, including modified indemnification language, to pay County an amount not to exceed $1,669,928 from Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Youth Formula funds, Subgant K7102026 for WIOA youth services for the period April 1, 2016 through June 30, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

County to receive an amount not to exceed $1,669,928 WIOA Youth Formula funds, Subgrant K7102026. (100% Federal) (No County match)

Without funding, employment and occupational training services to youth in Contra Costa County would be severely curtailed.
