Jobs and Education Program for the Rodríguez Gang Injunction Curfew Settlement
Jobs and Education Program for the Rodríguez Gang Injunction Curfew Settlement
The City of Los Angeles is funding a Job Training and Readiness Program available exclusively to Settlement Class Members in the case of “Rodríguez vs. City of Los Angeles.”
The program, administered by the Economic and Workforce Development Department, will allow class members to take advantage of job training services preparing them to enter the workforce, apprenticeship programs for jobs in today’s economy, as well as vocational and job training opportunities to connect them with available employment in high demand industries.
Services are currently available through 22 contracted job assistance centers from the WorkSource Center System and the Los Angeles Regional Initiative for Social Enterprise (LA:RISE).
Class members who are unable to participate in the program, or who do not have a need for this program, may transfer said benefit to a close relative (i.e. child, parent, sibling, or spouse). The program will be reviewed annually by a third-party evaluator from the California State University of Northridge to ensure it is providing appropriate services to class members.
