Explanation
BACKGROUND:
This ordinance authorizes and directs the Executive Director of the Civil Service Commission to enter into a not-for-profit service contract in the amount of $200,000.00 with Central Ohio Workforce Investment Corporation (COWIC). This $200,000.00 expenditure is allocated to support the City’s partnership with COWIC for the implementation of the 2015 Restoration Academy Program. The program will identify 50 individuals, through COWIC and its partnering agencies, to receive a myriad of programs and services including health assessments, life and occupational skills training, nutrition and fitness programs, etc. designed to assist participants with successfully transitioning back into the community and workforce. This partnership is necessary because the City does not offer many of the specialized services critical to the success of this program.
