SUPPORT FROM THE CITY OF GLENDALE

GlendaleLEARNS includes educators and community partners committed to improving the accessibility of adult education in the City of Glendale. The California Adult Education Program (CAEP) is made available under Assembly Bill (AB) 104 to provide funding for adult education and literacy. This grant was needed following the decision to stop funding for adult schools.
The purpose of the CAEP is to improve the provision of adult education through established consortia across the State of California. CAEP provides funding for:
  • 1. Programs in elementary and secondary basic skills, including programs leading to a high school diploma or high school equivalency certificate.
  • 2. Programs for immigrants eligible for educational services in citizenship, English as a Second Language (ESL), and workforce preparation.
  • 3. Programs for adults, including but not limited to: older adults, that are primarily related to entry or reentry into the workforce.
  • 4. Programs for adults, including but not limited to, older adults that are primarily designed to develop knowledge and skills to assist elementary and secondary school children to succeed academically in school.
  • 5. Programs for adults with disabilities (AWD).
  • 6. Programs in career technical education that are short-term in nature and have high employment potential.
  • 7. Programs offering pre-apprenticeship training activities conducted in coordination with one or more apprenticeship programs approved by the Division of Apprenticeship Standards for the occupation and geographic area.
The Grant is governed by the GlendaleLEARNS appointed members: Glendale Community College (GCC), Glendale Unified School District (GUSD) and Verdugo Workforce Development Board (VWDB).
GlendaleLEARNS also has 11 partners who participate in monthly meetings, have signed MOUs to coordinate services and serve the community: Foothill SELPA, Glendale Library Arts & Culture, JVS SoCal, Armenian Relief Society, International Rescue Committee, Family Promise of the Verdugos, Glendale Youth Alliance, State of California Department of Rehabilitation, State of California Employment Development Department, Campbell Center, and the Frank D. Lanterman Regional Center.
