 Good afternoon everyone. Jobs, workforce, local economy, our kids. The unemployment rate nationally and locally changed since 2006. When we look at Yolo County's unemployment rate, it peaked in 2011 at about 15%. And today it rests around 8%. When we look at our neighboring counties in Calusa, they sit at 21% today. In 2012, the Center of Excellence developed an agriculture value chain report for the state of California. And it indicated that there are currently 2.5 million jobs across four sectors in agriculture and fully anticipate an additional 185,000 jobs requiring some college education over the next five years. And yet, when we look at data from the California Department of Education, their reports suggest that only half of our high school graduates in Yolo County enter college after high school. So what do we do? The Woodland Community College Student Engagement and Economic Development Initiative is an answer to these issues. Development of strong K-12 partnerships reaching to our kids early in their education and fostering a direction towards work here in Yolo County. So when we took a look at agriculture-related companies or businesses in Yolo County, the work pretty much was done for us by UC Davis. When we look at this graphic here, Yolo County houses the greatest number of plant seed companies in the state of California, followed by Salines Valley. So what do we do with that? We look at identifying those needs for employment for those businesses that rest in our backyard. The seed initiative will address this issue. So we are looking at identifying those kids early in their education, not when they reach us at the community college. So the seed initiative has three simple steps. We're going to cultivate our kids in the high school. We're going to grow our kids through development of critical skills and knowledge through course completion. And then we will allow them multiple points through their educational career to harvest or enter the workforce. Our model is based off of a proven model established at Santa Barbara City College in 2007 titled Get Focus, Stay Focus. The premise of this program involves establishing a career-focused course at the ninth grade, offering that course through a dual enrollment model and allowing those kids to have college credits while in high school. This is similar to our model. Results suggest data that has decreased suspension rates by 30% and increased GPA and graduation rates by 30% across the nation. And for a family member, this is a cost savings of $200 because dual enrollment is free. From that career course, they will transition towards a clear pathway leading to either plant science or agriculture business degrees. They can earn 14 additional units for a cost savings of $1,100 and then transition into the community college to complete 19 units. This will allow them to receive a certificate and at which point they can harvest into the workforce with base skills and knowledge to make them a citizen in our county. However, they also have the option to continue on and receive associate degree with 41 additional units. And current legislation allows for students who receive an associate degree for transfer guaranteed admission into the CSU system, at which they can receive bachelor degree work. So there are multiple points of harvest and the one thing I want to leave you with is a quote that says, Always remember, your focus determines your reality and the CEDA initiative is committed to our students to foster that focus and direct them or guide them to the workforce that resides here in Yolo County. Thank you. Thank you so much.
