Background
The Reentry Council will appoint one individual to serve as its representative on the Workforce Investment Community Advisory Committee (WiCAC) which was established by Ordinance 0270-07 and is designed to advise the Workforce Investment San Francisco (WISF) board on the City’s workforce needs and solutions to meet them. The WiCAC will identify the “on-the-ground” workforce challenges, and recommend solutions to close gaps in the workforce development infrastructure. The WiCAC is composed of seven members that are staff and/or board members of 501(c)3 organizations. They serve terms of two years, for no more than two consecutive terms. The Reentry Council appoints one member to the WiCAC in order to reflect the workforce development challenges and solutions for formerly incarcerated people.
