Background
The Central Coast Small Business Development Center (SBDC) has successfully provided layoff aversion
technical assistance and Rapid Response referrals since 2009 for the federal Rapid Response Program. The
SBDC submitted a new grant proposal to the Workforce Investment Board of Santa Cruz (WIB) to continue
to assist Santa Cruz County employers.
Cabrillo’s Central Coast Small Business Development Center will be awarded a $40,000 grant from the
Santa Cruz County WIB. This funding will support continuing layoff aversion programs for the 2011-2012
fiscal year.
Fiscal Impact
An increase of $40,000 in revenue and expenditures.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Governing Board accept the $40,000 grant from the Santa Cruz Workforce
Investment Board. It is further recommended that the Board authorize the Vice President, Administrative
Services to execute and make all necessary arrangements in relation to this grant agreement and any future
amendments on behalf of the college.
