[Moving-to-Work 2011-2012 Annual Plan] Metrics Baseline Benchmarks Outcome High School Diploma Completion 0 participants 50 youth will participate by end of year 1 In year 1 of this activity, 12 youth enrolled/referred in MTW education initiatives 115 youth received jobtraining ACTIVITY 1(b) Pilot Child Care Training Program A. Description of MTW Activity: To meet one of the central goals of the MTW Demonstration, SAHA seeks to promote self sufficiency by creating a pilot child care training program and offering child care and after school services at designated family public housing developments. Currently, SAHA has limited child care partnerships that do not include an on the job training (OJT) component. In addition, SAHA currently does not have adequate space in its communities designated for child care services. The lack of a comprehensive child care training program and designated child care facilities creates a barrier to employment for hundreds of our able-bodied residents who would otherwise take advantage of self sufficiency activities. In response to this barrier, SAHA intends to partner with child care providers, as well as with job training programs, to create a comprehensive child care certification program with an OJT component. Residents enrolled in this program will obtain training and certification to be able to work in a SAHA/collaborative partnership child care facility and provide child care services to families in the same development. Residents living in the designated pilot properties will be able to utilize the child care facility if they are participating in the and are involved in any of the following approved self sufficiency activities: education (i.e. GED, college, learning seminars), job training, employment, or job seeking. B. Status Update: In year one of this activity, SAHA has developed partnerships with San Antonio College, Inman Christian Center, the YMCA and AVANCE daycare, which will provide training and accreditation to residents in the field of Child Care Development. Currently, 8 residents are attending the Community College and participating in internships, where they will be receiving their accredited certification in Early Childhood Development. Of the 8 families successfully enrolled in the Child Care Program, a total of 13 children are receiving child care services, while they are attending classes. Anticipated graduation date is July 29, 2011. Currently, SAHA has entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with Miller Child Development Center, Inc. to provide oversight of the Child Care Centers. Miller Child Development Center has received Rising Star Certification from the State of Texas and has been authorized to receive state subsidy to off-set the cost of child care.

[Moving-to-Work 2011-2012 Annual Plan] SAHA conducted a survey in early 2010, which indicated that 47% of our clients have a hard time obtaining employment, due to lack of child care services. The partnership with Miller Child Development Center, Inc. will allow the Housing Authority independence in the delivery of services; providing our clients immediate access to child care services, alleviating one of many barriers our clients face; in achieving self-sufficiency. C. Proposed Modifications: There are no proposed modifications for FY 2011-2012 D. Outside Evaluators: SAHA will not be using outside evaluators to monitor or evaluate this activity. Metrics Baseline Benchmarks Outcome Child Care Services 0 participants By end of year 1, SAHA will execute MOU‟s with childcare providers to provide services on site. By year two, 40 Families (10 families per development) will receive child care services at the sites. Year 1 MOU executed 8 families receiving job-training, and 13 children receiving childcare services ACTIVITY 1(c) Holistic Case Management Model A. Description of MTW Activity: Under the , SAHA proposes to develop and implement a Holistic Case Management Model in response to addressing barriers to employment for residents in SAHA‟s Public Housing and HCV programs. Currently, case management is provided under the Family Self Sufficiency (FSS) Program and the Elderly/Disabled Services (EDS) program. However, case management is not available to those residents not participating in any of these two grant- funded programs. Under the revised demonstration, holistic case management will be provided to all families participating in the. Case managers will be looking at barriers to employment, education and job training, social service needs, mental health, emotional wellness, physical health, and financial needs to identify the strengths and potential self-sufficiency achievements of the participants. Under the MTW proposed activity, Public Housing and HCV staff will also provide case management services, customer service, linkage to services, and promote selfsufficiency.
