Summary
Existing law establishes the Community College Extended Opportunity Programs and Services to encourage local community colleges to establish and implement programs directed to identifying those students affected by language, social, and economic handicaps, and to assist those students to achieve their educational objectives and goals, including, but not limited to, obtaining job skills, occupational certificates, or associate degrees, and transferring to 4-year institutions. Existing law authorizes the Chancellor's office of the California Community Colleges, in cooperation with the State Department of Social Services and the State Employment Development Department, to enter into agreements with community college districts, which, prior to July 1, 1984, established cooperative agencies resources for education programs, for the purpose of providing additional funds for support services for those programs. This bill would appropriate, for the 2015–16 fiscal year, $40,000,000 from an unspecified source to the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges to be allocated, as specified, for Extended Opportunity Programs and Services and for the administration of the Cooperative Agencies Resources for Education, thereby making an appropriation. Funds appropriated by this bill would be applied toward the minimum funding requirements for school districts and community college districts imposed by Section 8 of Article XVI of the California Constitution.
