- Program-Specific Requirements for Wagner-Peyser Program (Employment Services)
All Program-Specific Requirements provided for the WIOA core programs in this section must be addressed for either a Unified or Combined State Plan.
e. 6. D. Assessment of Progress
The plan must include an explanation of what was achieved based on the previous AOP, what was not achieved and an explanation as to why the State believes the goals were not achieved, and how the State intends to remedy the gaps of achievement in the coming year.
Current Narrative:
The SWA met the goals listed below:
- establishing monthly training for Outreach workers and all local staff.
- added video conferencing as a training tool
- field translation services to assist our workers outside of the office.
- the SWA created and maintains a statewide MSFW Operations Handbook.
The SWA did not meet the goal of adding additional community partners, as indicated in the last AOP document. Local Health Department staff and staff from the Environmental Protection Agency were invited but did not respond to attend our MSFW Partner meetings.
Strategy to garner participation and support from these entities:
- Step 1: Plan with Telamon Corporation staff a virtual meet and greet for all parties
- Step 2:Request agency staff and interested parties assist in planning and implementing our Agricultural Appreciation Day activities.
- Step 3:We will send a formal letter to each agency which emphasizes the need for our joint participation to serve our valuable farmworkers and families.
The focus will be to engage the designated staff in planning and implementing our Agricultural Appreciation Day. Additionally, we will request their assistance in providing education/consultation services to our Agricultural employers.
Our hope is to attract these agencies to join our efforts to serve MSFWs and increase community visibility as well as cooperation among the partners.
It is our intent to continue moving forward in creating and maintaining a MSFW Partnership program which meets the needs of MSFWs and their families.
