Budget Bill.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
To the Members of the California State Assembly:
I am signing Assembly Bill 1476 with the following reductions.
I am reducing the $50,000,000 General Fund augmentation for
deferred maintenance at the University of California. I am also
reducing the $50,000,000 General Fund augmentation for deferred
maintenance at the California State University.
This year's budget would have provided $200 million for critical
deferred maintenance at University of California, California State
University and other state facilities if property tax revenues
exceeded budget estimates at the time of the second principal
apportionment in July. Unfortunately, property tax revenues were
below budget estimates and the additional $200 million was not
available for deferred maintenance this year.
Making investments to maintain the state's aging infrastructure
continues to be a major priority for my administration, as is paying
down the state's debts and reducing other long-term liabilities.
However, we are nearly one quarter into the fiscal year now and we
should not commit additional General Fund monies of this magnitude
when we are facing unanticipated costs such as fighting the state's
extreme wildfires.

maintenance-of-effort requirement
established pursuant to the federal
Personal Responsibility and Work
Opportunity Reconciliation Act of
1996 (P.L. 104-193) may not be

for alternative payment programs
for actual and allowable costs
incurred for additional services,

Rate Survey for that
particular reimbursement
amount.

monthly analyses of CalWORKs
Stage 2 and Stage 3 caseloads
and expenditures and adjust
agency contract maximum
reimbursement amounts and
allocations as necessary to
ensure funds are distributed
proportionally to need. The
SDE shall share monthly
caseload analyses with the
State Department of Social
Services (DSS).
(b) The SDE shall provide
quarterly information
regarding the sufficiency of
funding for Stage 2 and Stage
3 to DSS. The SDE shall
provide caseloads,
expenditures, allocations,
unit costs, family fees, and
other key variables and
assumptions used in
determining the sufficiency of
state allocations. Detailed
backup by month and on a
county-by-county basis shall
be provided to the DSS at
least on a quarterly basis for
comparisons with Stage 1
trends.
(c) By September 30 and March 30
of each year, the SDE shall
ensure that detailed caseload
and expenditure data, through
the most recent period for
Stage 2 and Stage 3 along with
all relevant assumptions, is
provided to DSS to facilitate
budget development. The
detailed data provided shall
include actual and projected
monthly caseload from Stage 2
scheduled to time off of their
transitional child care
benefit from the last actual
month reported by agencies
through the next two fiscal
years as well as local
attrition experience. DSS
shall utilize data provided by
the SDE, including key
variables from the prior
fiscal year and the first two
months of the current fiscal
year, to provide coordinated
estimates in November of each
year for each of the three
stages of care for preparation
of the Governor's Budget, and
shall utilize data from at
least the first two quarters
of the current fiscal year,
and any additional monthly
data as they become available
for preparation of the May
Revision. The DSS shall share
its assumptions and
methodology with the SDE in
the preparation of the
Governor's Budget.
(d) The SDE shall coordinate with
the DSS to identify annual
general subsidized child care
program expenditures for
Temporary Assistance for Needy
Families-eligible children.
The SDE shall modify existing
reporting forms as necessary
to capture this data.
(e) The SDE shall provide to the
DSS, upon request, access to
the information and data
elements necessary to comply
with federal reporting
requirements and any other
information deemed necessary
to improve estimation of child
care budgeting needs.
(f) On or before January 30, 2015,
following consultation with
the DSS, the SDE shall
determine the adequacy of
funding appropriated by the
Legislature for CalWORKs Stage
2 and Stage 3. If the SDE
determines that the Stage 2
appropriation exceeds the
current year caseload needs
and the Stage 3 appropriation
is not sufficient to fully
fund its caseload need, then
the SDE shall submit a
request to the Department of
Finance to transfer the excess
funds from Schedule (1.5)(e),
CalWORKs Stage 2 child care to
Schedule (1.5)(f), CalWORKs
Stage 3 child care.
Notwithstanding Section 26.00
or any other provision of law,
the Department of Finance may,
at its discretion, approve
such a transfer.
(g) Notwithstanding any other
provision of law or any other
sections of this act, the
Department of Finance may
augment the appropriation for
CalWORKs Stage 3 if the
estimate of expenditures, as
determined by the SDE,
following consultation with
the DSS, will exceed the
expenditures authorized in
Schedule (1.5)(f). The
Department of Finance shall
report any augmentation
pursuant to this paragraph to
the Joint Legislative Budget
Committee. At the time the
report is made, the amount of
the appropriation made in
Schedule (1.5)(f) shall be
increased by the amount of the
augmentation.
(h) The Director of Finance may,
pursuant to Provisions 8(f)
and 8(g), authorize the
augmentation of the amount
available for expenditure in
Schedule (1.5)(f) by making a
transfer from Schedule
(1.5)(e). An augmentation may
be authorized not sooner than
30 days after notification in
writing of the necessity to
exceed the limitations is
provided to the Joint
Legislative Budget Committee,
or whatever lesser time the
chairperson of the joint
committee may determine. Any
request made by the SDE to
augment the CalWORKs Stage 3
appropriation shall be
approved only in order to
cover increases in costs that
are consistent with
assumptions of this act. This
provision shall not be
construed to treat Stage 3 as
an entitlement.
9. Notwithstanding any other provision
of law, the funds in Schedule
(1.5)(f) are reserved exclusively
for continuing child care for the
following: (a) former CalWORKs
families who are working, have left
cash aid, and have exhausted their
two-year eligibility for
transitional services in either
Stage 1 or Stage 2 pursuant to
subdivision (c) of Section 8351 or
Section 8353 of the Education Code,

services, and (b) families who
received lump-sum diversion
payments or diversion services

services.

of law, each local planning council
receiving funds appropriated in
Schedule (1.5)(n) shall meet the
requirements of Section 8499.5 of

of law, the implementation of

appeal and resolution procedures
for agencies that contract with the
State Department of Education for
the provision of child care
services or the due process
requirements afforded to families
that are denied services specified
in Chapter 19 (commencing with
Section 18000) of Division 1 of
Title 5 of the California Code of
Regulations.
12. Notwithstanding the rulemaking
provisions of the Administrative
Procedure Act (Chapter 3.5
(commencing with Section 11340) of
Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of
the Government Code), the State
Department of Education may
implement Provision 13 through
management bulletins or similar
instructions.
13. Notwithstanding any other provision
of law, families shall be
disenrolled from subsidized child
care services consistent with the
priorities for services specified
in subdivision (b) of Section 8263
of the Education Code. Families

following order: (a) families with
the highest income below 70 percent
of the State Median Income (SMI)

Provisions:
1. The funds appropriated in this
item are for transfer by the
Controller during the 2014-15
fiscal year to Section B of the
State School Fund.
2. The funds appropriated in
Schedule (1) for apportionments
include $31,409,000 to encourage
district-level accountability
efforts pursuant to Section
84754.5 of the Education Code.
It is intended that the Office
of the Chancellor of the
California Community Colleges
submit an annual report on
district-specific accountability
measures by March 31 of each
year. This report shall reflect
the outcomes from the most
recently completed fiscal year
for which data is available
pursuant to Section 84754.5 of
the Education Code.
3. Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, apportionment
funding for community college
districts shall be based on the
greater of the current year
or prior year level of full-time
equivalent students (FTES),
consistent with K-12 declining
enrollment practices pursuant to
Section 42238.5 of the Education
Code. Decreases in FTES shall
result in a revenue reduction at
the district's average level of
apportionment funding per FTES
and shall be made in the year
following the initial year of
decrease in FTES.
4. Of the funds appropriated in
Schedule (1), Apportionments:
(a) Up to $100,000 is for a
maintenance allowance,
pursuant to Section 54200
of Title 5 of the
California Code of
Regulations.
(b) Up to $500,000 is to
reimburse colleges for the
costs of federal aid
repayments related to
assessed fees for fee
waiver recipients. This
reimbursement only applies
to students who completely
withdraw from college
before the census date
pursuant to Section 58508
of Title 5 of the
California Code of
Regulations.
5. Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, the Chancellor
of the California Community
Colleges shall not reduce
district workload obligations
for a lack of a funded cost-of-
living adjustment.
6. (a) The amount appropriated in
Schedule (3) for the
Apprenticeship Program
shall be available as
necessary upon
certification by the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges for the purpose
of funding community
college-related and
supplemental instruction
pursuant to Section 3074
of the Labor Code, as
provided in Article 3
(commencing with Section
79140) of Chapter 9 of
Part 48 of Division 7 of
Title 3 of the Education
Code. No community college
district shall use funds
available under this
provision to offer any new
apprenticeship training
program or the expansion
of any existing program
unless the new program or
expansion has been
approved by the chancellor.
(b) Notwithstanding Article 3
(commencing with Section
79140) of Chapter 9 of
Part 48 of Division 7 of
Title 3 of the
Education Code, each 60-
minute hour of teaching
time devoted to each
indentured apprentice
enrolled in and attending
classes of related and
supplemental instruction
as provided under Section
3074 of the Labor Code
shall be reimbursed at the
rate of $5.04 per hour.
For purposes of this
provision, each hour of
teaching time may include
up to 10 minutes for
passing time and breaks.
7. Funds appropriated in Schedule
(4), Growth for Apportionments,
shall be available first to any
districts bringing online newly
accredited colleges or
educational centers. It is the
intent of the Legislature that
increases in basic foundation
allocations to each college be
funded prior to additional
growth in full-time equivalent
students. The Chancellor of the
California Community Colleges
shall provide a report by
November 1 of each year, to the
Department of Finance and
the Legislative Analyst, on the
number of new centers and
colleges added for the current
fiscal year and those
anticipated to be added for the
prospective budget year. This
report shall also detail the
specific funding adjustments
provided for basic foundation
allocations to each college and
center for the current fiscal
year.
8. (a) Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, funds
appropriated in Schedule
(4), Growth for
Apportionments, shall only
be allocated for growth in
full-time equivalent
students (FTES), on a
district-by-district
basis, as determined by
the Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges. The chancellor
shall not include any FTES
from concurrent enrollment
in physical education,
dance, recreation, study
skills, and personal
development courses and
other courses in
conflict with existing law
for the purpose of
calculating a district's
three-year overcap
adjustment.
(b) The Board of Governors of
the California Community
Colleges shall adopt
criteria and an allocation
formula for the funds
appropriated in Schedule
(4), Growth for
Apportionments, so as to
ensure that access to
courses in the California
Community Colleges'
missions related to
student needs for
transfer, basic skills and
vocational/workforce
training are aligned to
regional and community
needs to the maximum
extent possible. When
formulating the
allocation, the board of
governors shall consider,
at minimum, the priorities
as outlined in Section
84750.5 of the Education
Code.
9. The funds appropriated in
Schedule (5), Student Success
for Basic Skills Students, shall
be allocated as follows:
(a) $969,000 for faculty and
staff development to
improve curriculum,
instruction, student
services, and program
practices in the areas of
basic skills and English
as a Second Language (ESL)
programs. The Office of
the Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges shall select a
district, utilizing a
competitive process, to
carry out these faculty
and staff development
activities. All colleges
receiving funds pursuant
to subdivision (b) shall
be provided with the
opportunity to participate
in the faculty and staff
development programs
specified in this
subdivision. The
chancellor shall report on
the use of these funds by
the selected district
to the Legislative Analyst
and the Department of
Finance not later than
September 1 of each year.
(b) $19,068,000 for allocation
by the chancellor to
community college
districts for improving
outcomes of students who
enter college needing at
least one course in ESL or
basic skills, with
particular emphasis on
students transitioning
from high school.
(c) Funding specified in
subdivisions (a) and (b)
shall be distributed to
eligible applicants
pursuant to Chapter 489 of
the Statutes of 2007.
(d) The Office of the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges shall work
jointly with the
Department of Finance and
the Legislative Analyst to
evaluate and refine, as
necessary, the annual
accountability measures
for this program. It is
the intent of the
Legislature that annual
performance accountability
measures for this program
utilize, to the extent
possible, data available
as part of the
accountability system
developed pursuant to
Section 84754.5 of the
Education Code. By
September 1, 2010, the
chancellor shall submit a
report to the Governor and
the Legislature on basic
skills accountability
using system- and college-
level data and an annual
report each year
thereafter by September 1.
10. (a) Of the funds
appropriated in Schedule
(6) for Student Financial
Aid Administration, not
less than $15,363,000 is
available to provide $0.91
per unit reimbursement to
community college
districts for the
provision of board of
governors (BOG) fee waiver
awards pursuant to
paragraph (2) of
subdivision (m) of Section
76300 of the Education
Code.
(b) Of the funds appropriated
in Schedule (6), not less
than $15,532,000 is
available for the Board
Financial Assistance
Program to provide
reimbursement of 2 percent
of total waiver value to
community college
districts for the
provision of BOG fee
waiver awards pursuant to
paragraph (2) of
subdivision (m) of Section
76300 of the Education
Code.
(c) Funding provided to
community college
districts in subdivisions
(a) and (b) is provided to
directly offset any
mandated costs claimed by
community college
districts pursuant to
Commission on State
Mandates Test Claims 99-TC-
13 (Enrollment Fee
Collection) and 00-TC-15
(Enrollment Fee Waivers).
(d) (1) Of the amount
appropriated in
Schedule (6),
$2,800,000 shall be
for a contract with
a community college
district to conduct
a statewide media
campaign to promote
the general message
to prospective
students as follows:
(A) the California
Community Colleges
(CCC) remain
affordable, (B)
financial aid tax
credits are
available to cover
enrollment fees and
help with books and
other costs, and
(C) the active
encouragement of
contact between
pupils and local CCC
financial aid
offices. Any funds
used from this
source to produce
radio, television,
or mail campaigns
must emphasize the
availability of
financial aid, the
easiest and most
reliable method of
accessing the aid, a
contact telephone
number, an Internet
Web site address,
where applicable,
and the physical
location of a
financial aid
office. Any mail
campaign must give
priority to existing
pupils, recent high
school graduates,
and 12th graders.
The outreach and
information campaign
should target its
efforts in high
schools, welfare
offices,
unemployment
offices, churches,
community centers,
and any other
location that will
most effectively
reach low-income and
disadvantaged
students who must
overcome barriers in
accessing
postsecondary
education. The
community college
district awarded the
contract shall
consult with the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges and the
Student Aid
Commission prior to
performing any
activities to
ensure appropriate
coordination with
any other state
efforts in this area
and ensure
compliance with this
provision.
(2) Of the amount
appropriated in
Schedule (6), not
more than
$34,200,000 shall be
for direct contact
with potential and
current financial
aid applicants. Each
CCC campus shall
receive a minimum
allocation of
$50,000. The
remainder of the
funding shall be
allocated to
campuses based upon
a formula reflecting
full-time equivalent
students (FTES)
weighted by a
measure of low-
income populations
demonstrated by BOG
fee waiver program
participation within
a district. It is
the intent of the
Legislature, to the
extent that funds
are provided in this
item, that all
campuses provide
additional staff
resources to
increase both
financial aid
participation and
student access
to low-income and
disadvantaged
students who must
overcome barriers in
accessing
postsecondary
education. Funds may
be used for
screening current
students for
possible financial
aid eligibility and
offering personal
assistance to these
students in
accessing financial
aid, providing
individual help in
multiple languages
for families and
students in filling
out the necessary
paperwork to apply
for financial aid,
and increasing
financial aid staff
to process
additional financial
aid forms.
(3) Funding provided to
community college
districts in
paragraph (2) is
provided to offset
any mandated costs
claimed by community
college districts
pursuant to the
Commission on State
Mandates Test Claims
02-TC-28 (Cal
Grants) and 02-TC-21
(Tuition Fee
Waivers).
(4) Funds allocated to a
community college
district for
financial aid
personnel, outreach
determination of
financial need, and
delivery of student
financial aid
services shall
supplement, and
shall not supplant,
the level of funds
allocated for the
administration of
student financial
aid programs during
the 2001-02 or 2006-
07 fiscal year,
whichever is greater.
(5) It is the intent of
the Legislature that
the Office of the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges provide the
Legislature with a
report not later
than April 1 of each
year on the use of
the funds
allocated pursuant
to paragraphs (1)
and (2), including
the distribution of
the funds, specific
uses of the funds,
strategies employed
to reach low-income
and disadvantaged
students potentially
eligible for
financial aid, and
the extent to which
districts were
successful in
increasing the
number of students
accessing financial
aid, particularly
the maximum Pell
Grant award.
(6) It is the intent of
the Legislature that
the chancellor
report by May 15 of
each year, in the
manner and using the
factors set forth in
paragraph (5) of
subdivision (c) of
Provision 11 of Item
6870-101-0001 of the
Budget Act of 2007
(Chs. 171 and 172,
Stats. 2007), on the
impact of outreach
efforts on student
headcount and FTES
enrollment for the
2009-10 and 2010-11
academic years.
(e) Notwithstanding
subdivision (m) of Section
76300 of the Education
Code or any other
provision of law, the
amount of funds
appropriated for the
purpose of administering
fee waivers for the 2014-
15 fiscal year shall be
determined in this act.
11. (a) The funds appropriated in
Schedule (7) for the
Disabled Students Program
are for assisting
districts in funding the
excess direct
instructional cost of
providing special support
services or instruction,
or both, to disabled
students enrolled at
community colleges, and
for state hospital
programs, as mandated by
federal law.
(b) Of the amount appropriated
in Schedule (7), no less
than $3,945,000 shall be
used to address
deficiencies identified by
the federal Office for
Civil Rights (OCR), as
determined by the Office
of the Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges.
(c) Of the amount appropriated
in Schedule (7), at least
$943,000 shall be used for
support of the High Tech
Centers for activities
including, but not limited
to, training of district
employees, staff, and
students in the use of
specialized computer
equipment for the
disabled. All High Tech
Centers shall meet
standards developed by the
Office of the Chancellor
of the California
Community Colleges.
Colleges that receive
these augmentations shall
not supplant existing
resources provided to the
centers.
(d) Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, of the
funds appropriated in
Schedule (7), $1,000,000
shall be for state
hospital adult education
programs at the hospitals
served by the Coast and
Kern Community College
Districts since the 1986-
87 fiscal year. If adult
education services at any
of the two hospitals are
not supported by the
community colleges in any
portion of the 2014-15
fiscal year, remaining
funds shall, upon order of
the Department of Finance,
after 30 days' notice to
the Chairperson of the
Joint Legislative Budget
Committee, be transferred
to the State Department of
Developmental Services
(DDS). For any transfer of
funds to DDS during the
2014-15 fiscal year, the
Proposition 98 base
funding levels for
community colleges and DDS
shall be adjusted
accordingly.
(e) Of the funds appropriated
in Schedule (7) for the
Disabled Student Services,
no less than $9,600,000
shall be allocated to
support high-cost sign
language interpreter
services and real-time
captioning equipment or
other communication
accommodations for hearing-
impaired students based on
a 4-to-1 state-to-local
district match.
12. The funds appropriated in
Schedule (8), Special Services
for CalWORKs Recipients, are for
the purpose of assisting welfare
recipient students and those in
transition off of welfare to
achieve long-term self-
sufficiency through coordinated
student services offered at
community colleges, including
workstudy, other educational
related work experience, job
placement services, child care
services, and coordination with
county welfare offices to
determine eligibility and
availability of services. All
services funded in Schedule (8)
shall be for current CalWORKs
recipients or prior CalWORKs
recipients who are in transition
off of cash assistance for no
more than two years. Current
cash-assistance recipients may
utilize these services until
their initial educational
objectives are met. Former
recipients in transition off of
cash assistance may utilize
these services for a period of
up to two years after leaving
cash assistance subject to the
conditions of this provision.
These funds shall be used to
supplement and not supplant
existing funds and services
provided for CalWORKs recipients
attending community colleges.
The Chancellor of the California
Community Colleges shall develop
an equitable method for
allocating funds to all
districts and colleges based on
the relative numbers of CalWORKs
recipients in attendance and
shall allocate funds for the
following purposes:
(a) Job placement.
(b) Coordination with county
welfare offices and other
local agencies, including
local workforce investment
boards.
(c) Curriculum development and
redesign.
(d) Child care and workstudy.
(e) Instruction.
(f) Postemployment skills
training and related
skills.
(g) Campus-based case
management, limited to on-
campus assistance and
services not provided by
county case workers that
do not supplant other
counseling and academic
support services funded
through existing
California Community
Colleges categorical
programs.
Of the amount appropriated in
Schedule (8), $9,188,000 is for
child care and does not require
a district match. For the
remaining funds, districts
shall, as a condition of receipt
of these funds, provide a $1
match for every $1 provided by
the state.
Funds utilized for subsidized
child care shall be for children
of CalWORKs recipients through
campus-based centers or parental
choice vouchers at rates and
with rules consistent with those
applied to related programs
operated by the State Department
of Education in the 2014-15
fiscal year, including
eligibility, reimbursement
rates, and parental contribution
schedules. Subsidized campus
child care for CalWORKs
recipients may be provided
during the period they are
engaged in qualifying state and
federal work activities through
attainment of their initial
education and training plan and
for up to three months
thereafter or until the end of
the academic year, whichever
period of time is greater.
Funds utilized for workstudy
shall be used solely for
payments to employers that
currently participate in campus-
based workstudy programs or are
providing work experiences that
are directly related to and in
furtherance of student
educational programs and work
participation requirements,
provided that those payments may
not exceed 75 percent of the
wage for the workstudy
positions, and the employers
shall pay at least 25 percent of
the wage for the workstudy
positions. These funds may be
expended only if the total hours
of education, employment, and
workstudy for the student are
sufficient to meet state or
federal minimum requirements for
qualifying work-related
activities.
Funds may be used to provide
credit or noncredit classes for
CalWORKs students if a district
has committed all of its funded
full-time equivalent students
(FTES) and is unable to offer
the additional instructional
services to meet the demand for
CalWORKs students. This
determination shall be based on
fall enrollment information.
Districts shall submit
applications to the office of
the chancellor by December 1 of
each year. If the chancellor
approves the use of funds for
direct instructional workload,
the Office of the Chancellor
shall submit a report to the
Department of Finance and the
Joint Legislative Budget
Committee by February 15 of each
year that (a) identifies the
enrollment of new CalWORKs
students, (b) states whether and
why additional classes were
needed to accommodate the needs
of CalWORKs students, and (c)
sets forth an expenditure plan
for the balance of funds.
As a condition of receipt of
the funds appropriated in
Schedule (8), by the fourth week
following the end of the
semester or quarter term
commencing in January 2015,
participating community
districts and colleges shall
submit to the office of the
chancellor a report, in the
format specified by the
chancellor in consultation with
the State Department of Social
Services, that includes, but is
not limited to, the funded
components, the number of hours
of child care provided, the
average monthly enrollment of
CalWORKs dependents served in
child care, the number of
workstudy hours provided, the
hourly salaries and type of
jobs, the number of students
being case managed, the short-
term programs available, the
student participation rates, and
other outcome data. It is
intended that, to the extent
practicable, reporting from
colleges utilize data gathered
for federal reporting
requirements at the state and
local level. Further, it is
intended that the office of the
chancellor compile the
information for annual reports
to the Legislature, the
Governor, the Legislative
Analyst, the Department of
Finance, and the State
Department of Social Services by
February 15 of each year.
First priority for expenditures
of any funds appropriated in
Schedule (8) shall be in support
of current CalWORKs
recipients. However, if
caseloads are insufficient to
fully utilize all of the funding
in this schedule in a cost-
beneficial way, it is intended
that up to $5,000,000 of the
funds subject to local matching
requirements may be allocated
for providing postemployment
services to former CalWORKs
recipients who have been off of
cash assistance for no longer
than two years to assist them in
upgrading skills, job retention,
and advancement. Allowable
services include direct
instruction that cannot be
funded under available growth
funding, child care to support
attendance in these classes
consistent with this provision,
job development and placement
services, and career counseling
and assessment activities that
cannot be funded through other
programs. Child care services
may only be provided for periods
commensurate with a student's
need for postemployment training
within the two-year transitional
period.
Prior to allocation of funds
for postemployment services, the
chancellor shall first secure
the approval of the Department
of Finance for the allocations,
complete a cumulative report on
the outcomes, activities, and
cost-effectiveness of the
program no later than February
15 of each year in compliance
with the Budget Act of 1998 (Ch.
324, Stats. 1998) and the Budget
Act of 1999 (Ch. 50, Stats.
1999) and this act, and shall
provide the rationale and
justification for the proposed
allocation of postemployment
services to districts for
transitional students.
If a district is unable to
fully expend its share of child
care funds, it may request that
the Office of the Chancellor
approve a reallocation to other
CalWORKs purposes authorized
by this provision, subject to
all pertinent limitations and
district match required for
these purposes under this
provision.
Of the funds appropriated in
Schedule (8) for the Special
Services for CalWORKs Recipients
Program, no less than $4,900,000
is to provide direct workstudy
wage reimbursement for students
served under this program, and
$613,000 is available for campus
job development and placement
services.
13. Funds appropriated in Schedule
(8) for the Special Services for
CalWORKs Recipients Program have
been budgeted to meet the
state's Temporary Assistance for
Needy Families maintenance-of-
effort requirement pursuant
to the federal Personal
Responsibility and Work
Opportunity Reconciliation Act
of 1996 (P.L. 104-193) and may
not be expended in any way that
would cause their
disqualification as a federally
allowable maintenance-of-effort
expenditure.
14. (a) Funds provided in Schedule
(9) for the Foster Care
Education Program shall be
allocated to provide
foster and
relative/kinship care
education and training.
Districts shall ensure
that education and
training required by
Sections 1529.1 and 1529.2
of the Health and Safety
Code and Section 16003 of
the Welfare and
Institutions Code receive
priority. Districts may
use any remaining funds
for additional parenting
skills training.
(b) Funds provided in Schedule
(9) shall be used for
foster parent and
relative/kinship care
provider education
training services
consistent with the
following criteria:
(1) The Chancellor of
the California
Community Colleges
shall use these
funds exclusively
for foster parent
and relative/kinship
care provider
education and
training, as
specified by the
chancellor in
consultation with an
advisory committee
that includes foster
parents,
representatives of
statewide foster
parent
organizations,
parent and
relative/kinship
care providers, and
representatives from
the State Department
of Social Services.
(2) Acceptance of funds
under this program
shall constitute
agreement by the
district to comply
with such reporting
requirements,
guidelines, and
other conditions for
receipt of funding
as the chancellor
may establish.
(3) Each college plan
for foster and
relative/kinship
care education
programs shall
include the
provision of
training to
facilitate the
development of
foster family homes,
small family homes,
and relative/kinship
homes to care for no
more than six
children who have
special mental,
emotional,
developmental, or
physical needs.
(4) The State Department
of Social Services
shall facilitate the
participation of
county welfare
departments in the
foster and
relative/kinship
care education
program.
15. (a) Funds appropriated in
Schedule (10) for the
Matriculation Program are
for the purpose of student

tools. Prior to the
expenditure of these
funds, the Chancellor of
the California Community
Colleges shall submit a
proposed expenditure plan
to the Department of
Finance and to the
Joint Legislative Budget
Committee.
(d) (1) Notwithstanding any
other provision of
law, of the amount
appropriated in
Schedule (10),
$70,000,000 shall be
for the purpose of
supporting the

in a manner that
ensures districts
with a greater
proportion or number
of students who are
high need, as
determined by the
Office of the
Chancellor, receive
greater resources to
provide services to
these students.
(3) As a condition of
receipt of these
funds, the districts
are required to
include in their
Student Equity Plan
how they will
coordinate existing
student support
services in a manner
to better serve
their high-need
student populations.
At a minimum, their
plan shall
demonstrate
alignment of
services funded
through allocations
from Schedules (5),

It is the intent of
the Legislature that
technical assistance
providers be
contracted in a cost-
effective manner,
that they primarily
consist of experts
who are current and
former employees of
the California
Community Colleges,
and that they
provide technical
assistance in a
manner that is
consistent with the
vision for the
California Community
Colleges. Beginning
in the 2015-16
fiscal year, the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges shall
provide a report of
prior year use of
these funds,

previously authorized. Funds
shall be distributed to
districts based on the total
actual full-time equivalent
students served in the previous
fiscal year and include a small
district factor as determined by
the Chancellor of the California
Community Colleges. These funds
are to be used to assist
districts in making part-time
faculty salaries more comparable
to full-time salaries for
similar work, as determined
through each district's local
collective bargaining process.
These funds shall not supplant
the amount of resources each
district used to compensate part-
time faculty or be used to
exceed parity of each part-time
faculty employed by each
district with regular full-time
faculty at the same district, as
certified by the chancellor. If
a district achieves parity, its
allocation may be used for any
other educational purpose.
