American Recovery and Reinvestment Act 2009 - 2012

$80,000,000,000 awarded to California for job growing projects fomr 2009 - 2012 is helping the state pull out of its recently increasing unemployment rates, county by county.

For example, on May 20 '09, Indeed.com listed over 275,000 job openings for California and the large numbers of job openings are not even listed on Internet Job Search Engines. The jobs listed in Indeed.Com currently for California are largely Healthcare, Sales, and Management positions.

Jobs and companies pass out of existance, but new companies and employment fields open up to replace them. The local WIA job Offices are in place to help match unemployed and underemployed workers into jobs and training programs that lead to real jobs. The ARRA money helps that mission reach more people and privde support services and eduction & childcare for their families. green Jobs are a large part of the drive forward for California.

The Green Collar Jobs Act was signed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in September '08, to create such jobs under the California Workforce Investment Board and WIA. Look for more green jobs soon.

There is Hope In California 2009 - 2012

California is receiving over 80 Billion Dollars from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act stimulus package funding. This includes $8.5 Billion for Employment and nearly $12 Billion for Education around the states that will lead to gainful employment long-term for its residents.

Looking more closely at Employment, we find that the allocation fof Adult Employment Services is $500 Million and Older Workers $120 Million. Youth Jobs Services (ages 14 - 24) received $1.2 BILLION. However, the largest pot of money is going to help Dislocated Workers, in the amount of $1.25 BILLION. Healthcare Workforce Development has an additional $500 Million. Other categories of work-related funding make up the remainder of the total.

Under Education, large amounts of money are earmarked to help in the way of Child Care and Head Start and related services that will help adults return to work or success in their first acceptance of long-term gainful employment. The School Lunch Program is also being fortified through the stimulus. Teacher improvement, educational programming, Pell Grant upscaling, and several other projects will provide the impetus toward putting California to work.

Funding for Public Transportation and Health Services will increase the chances of Californians finding and maintaining good jobs permanently. Green intiatives expand those possibilities, as discussed in the films to the right.
