Consent Agenda

Chair Cathy Fraser referenced the Correction to the Record handout. President Laurie Larrea continued with the following:

The Board packet for May 21 incorrectly reflected a prior grant submission from DCCCD Richland College-Garland Campus, and the Garland Manufacturing Association. The grant that was signed and recommended to the Texas Workforce Commission was similar, but contained different key employers and slightly different performance. The Board Packet and Minutes from May 21 Board Action for Consent Agenda Item - D Endorsement of External Grants and Applications reads – “Richland College – Garland Campus will partner with the Dallas County Manufacturing Association to serve 345 trainees. Employer partners include: Atlas Copco Drilling Solutions, Sherwin Williams, The Buferd Co., and Work Area Protection.” And as reported in the minutes: Richland College – Garland Campus will partner with the Dallas County Manufacturing Association to serve 345 trainees. Employer partners include: Atlas Copco Drilling Solutions, Sherwin Williams, The Buferd Co., and Work Area Protection. To be corrected in the May 21st record, and the subsequent Minutes of the meeting as follows: Richland College- Garland Campus will partner with the Dallas County Manufacturing Association to serve 341 trainees with employers: Ecolab, Inc., General Dynamics, J&A Manufacturing, KARLEE Co., Kraft Foods Group, Inc., Marlow Industries, Inc., and Micropac Industries, Inc.

It was recommended that the Board of Directors approve the substitution of language to correct the record and the subsequent minutes of May 21, 2014; and apply the language to both the action and the minutes. The project received notification of funding and will be implemented in the immediate future. We congratulate DCCCD Richland Garland Campus, and the employers of the Dallas County Manufacturing Association for their long history and their recent “win”.

From time to time, staff will present additional performance data specific to contractors, vendors or special projects. This month the report contains performance matrix for all career training vendors. Means, Ends and Expectations will always include our financial statements and a fiscal report by grant fund. Our primary customer, employers, will also be included in this section referencing engagement with the system from hiring to outplacement services. Most months will also reference labor market trends.

President’s Briefing – A Adult Education & Literacy Project and Contract Awards

Texas Workforce Commission, Adult Education and Literacy (AEL) Grant On April 7, 2014, the Dallas County AEL Consortium applied to the Texas Workforce Commission for AEL grant funds to serve citizens within Dallas County. WFSDallas partnered with Dallas Independent School District, Dallas County Community College District, Richardson Independent School District, Irving Independent School District, Region 10, the Dallas Public Library and the Wilkinson Center. Collectively, the Consortium partnership will grow AEL services and create opportunities that will positively impact the workforce and educational progress for Dallas County residents. We received a layered grant award in July that was very different from the norm. However; after review and prolonged discussions and consulting with the Board’s attorney, we signed the grant with a letter of “formal protest” in August. The total grant award is $7,178,913 to serve 12,800 customers, effective July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. $391,450 will cover administrative expenses (project director, fiscal, monitoring/oversight, contracts and other services). Staff request to move forward with issuing contracts with the Dallas County AEL Consortium members as follows: Dallas Independent School District - to provide General Education Development (GED) and English as a

Second Language (ESL) preparation, Basic Literacy/Low Level Literacy, Family Literacy and EL/Civic instruction to 7,000 customers at cost not exceed $2,928,356;

Dallas County Community College District - to provide Transitions preparation including work place readiness and post-secondary/college education and career paths to 3,150 customers at cost not to exceed $2,111,227;

Region 10 - to provide professional development to the Consortium service providers throughout the grant duration at cost not to exceed $250,495;

President’s Briefing Item—B AARP Project Discussion and Grant Award

WFSDallas is always exploring ways to access less restricted resources to provide targeted assistance to underserved populations. We have recently begun to engage workforce intermediaries who provide funding, technical assistance and direct service for specific populations of jobseekers. For instance, we have been cultivating a relationship with the AARP Foundation since late 2013, which has resulted in a partnership to serve long-term unemployed jobseekers aged 50+. AARP Foundation invited us to apply for a BACK TO WORK 50+ expansion site grant in May 2014, which the Board approved in the same month. In June, the Foundation notified us that we were one of four workforce boards to receive a $100,000 award. This funding will support implementation of BACK TO WORK 50+ at Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas (BTW50+) over a 24-month period beginning in August 2014. Our partnership will distribute co-branded outreach material via print and digital media that will target dislocated and/or long-term unemployed workers who are 50 years and older. The intent of the program is to reconnect these workers with resources that will help them seek and obtain employment. ResCare staff will host monthly Information Sessions alternating between the Preston at Alpha and Southwest Workforce Centers to review the AARP Foundation guide “7 Smart Strategies for 50+ Jobseekers” with participants. Subsequently, attendees will be invited to apply for the coaching portion of the program. Successful candidates will receive individual and cohort job search coaching, which will include financial management training. BTW50+ will host Information Sessions for 180 participants, and will provide coaching services for 48 jobseekers per year. We are seeking Board action contract with Rescare in the amount of $47,500 for a 24-month period beginning September 1, 2014 for staffing and supplies related to information and coaching sessions with 50+ long-term unemployed jobseekers. RECOMMENDATION: Board authorization to accept a grant award in the amount of $100,000 from the AARP Foundation to implement the BACK TO WORK 50+ at Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas initiative over a 24-month, and to amend ResCare’s contract to add $47,500 for staffing and supplies related to information and coaching sessions beginning September 1, 2014.

President’s Briefing Item—D

Strategic Planning

President’s Briefing Item—E Legislative Updates

WIOA On July 22nd, President Barack Obama signed the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) into law. The historic bipartisan, bicameral bill amends and reauthorizes the Workforce investment Act of 1998 (WIA) through 2020. WIOA (HR 803), makes key improvements to the nation's workforce development system to help job seekers access employment, education, training, and support services to succeed in the labor market; and to match employers with the skilled workers they need to compete in the global economy. WIOA supersedes the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 and amends the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act, the Wagner-Peyser Act, and the Rehabilitation Act Amendments of 1998. In general, the Act takes effect on July 1, 2015, the first full program year after enactment, unless otherwise noted. Click here to read the WIOA Fact Sheet. Appropriations On July 24th, the Senate Labor-HHS Committee posted its appropriations bill and committee report, an action which indicates that the Senate will most likely not be moving forward on a stand-alone Labor-HHS bill. The Senate’s bill does increase Workforce Investment Act (WIA) formula funding – a welcome change from past years. Under the Education funding bill, the Pell Grant program sees a $100 increase in the maximum award, bringing it to $5,830 for award year 2015-16. The bill also includes restoration of Pell Grant eligibility for ability to benefit students enrolled in career pathway programs. The bill also includes increases in funding for a number of programs, including: Adult Basic Education; Perkins CTE; SEOG; Federal Work Study; Strengthening Institutions; and Developing Hispanic Serving Institutions.

Implementing a Job-Driven Workforce System – DOL recently release a Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) to communicate the vision for an integrated, effective, job-driven workforce system. It also shares V.P. Joe Biden's job-driven training report, documenting the results of his review of Federal job training and education programs. Click here to read the full TEGL.

To help workforce boards and professionals prepare for implementation of WIOA, the Department of Labor’s (DOL)

Employment and Training Administration (ETA) has released the first set of guidance materials, including the Training and Employment Notice (TEN) Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act Announcement and Initial Informational Resources. Click here to read the full TEN.

The Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program is set to expire on Sept. 30. Congress is likely either to approve a temporary extension before this occurs or, as happened last year, extend the program at some point after the sunset date.

House Education and the Workforce Committee Chairman Kline and Higher Education and Workforce Training Subcommittee Chairwoman Foxx released a white paper outlining key principles that will guide the reauthorization of the Higher Education Act. [To read the white paper, click here.] The four principles outlined in the white paper are:

o Empowering students and families to make informed decisions; o Simplifying and improving student aid; o Promoting innovation, access, and completion; and o Ensuring strong accountability and a limited federal role.
