Within the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Social Services Branch, there are currently two divisions that provide employment services to Social Services customers - the CalWORKs/Welfare to Work (CW/WtW) Division and the Employment and Training Division (ETD). The current structure has resulted in duplicative work, and DHHS believes a single Program Manager II with a single Program Manager structure would be more appropriate and would support a clearer, more efficient chain of command by having all employment services consolidated into one division within Social Services. The newly allocated Program Manager would be responsible for the Employment Resource Center lab, Helping Humboldt, CalFresh Employment and Training Program, Humboldt 2nd Chance programs and Business Services. This newly allocated Program Manager will report to the CW/WtW Program Manager II who will have responsibility for all program and services. This consolidation and restructure of classification will allow for a reduction in duplicative work, to align programs and streamline services, and to better program and system coordination.

County Human Resources has reviewed and is in support of this recommendation.
