IAI I Y Ul= SAN BERNAKU►INU - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE NATIONAL INDIAN COUNCIL ON AGING, INC. TO PROVIDE TRAINEE SITES FOR THE SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICE EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM. The City has been invited to participate in a training program for Seniors 55 years of age and above which is provided through a special fund set up under the provisions of Title V of the Older Americans Act. The program provides for a Senior Community Service Program in which participants are paid while they train. The National Indian Council on Aging, Inc. gives oversight to this program, however, participants do not have to be Native Americans as long as they meet the age, income and residency requirements established by the Department of Health and Human Services. Initially, this department will have three (3) trainee positions at the Westside Community Services Center. These positions will work with our programs which currently deal with health and human services, employment counseling, food distribution and emergency services for homeless and other disadvantaged individuals and families. Other trainee positions may be developed in the administration office and in the social programs areas as funding becomes available. The cost of this program will be borne by the National Indian Council on Aging, Inc. with the City providing in-kind support by providing the training site, supervision and administration of the program. The in-kind support will approximate $450 annually per trainee for a 20 hour work week. Trainees are paid by the federal agency at the prevailing federal minimum wage or the State's minimum wage, whichever is greater. This program will provide some needed assistance for our community and human services and at the same time provide training for senior citizens who need to learn skills for acquiring meaningful employment. It is recommended that this resolution and agreement be adopted so that this department may participate in this worthwhile program. 1 RESOLUTION NO. ,2 RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AUTHORIZING THE 3 DIRECTOR OF PARKS,RECREATION AND COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH THE NATIONAL INDIAN COUNCIL ON 4 AGING, INC., SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICE EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM TO PLACE SENIOR TRAINEES AT CITY WORK SITES. 5 BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY 6 OF SAN BERNARDINO AS FOLLOWS: 7 SECTION 1.
