Organization Chart
The EVC CalWORKs Program serves Santa Clara County CalWORKs participants who receive TANF and get approved and referred to EVC. If you receive TANF, you will be required to participate in California's welfare-to-work program. A Welfare-to-Work Plan outlines mandatory activities that help adults in the family to secure employment. Attending EVC and pursuing a degree or certificate could be one of your mandatory activities.
TANF stands for "Temporary Assistance for Needy Families", a Federal cash aid program (welfare) for parents who meet income guidelines and have a child/children at home under age 18.
CalWORKS stands for the California Work Opportunities and Responsibility to Kids, and is the California Program for cash aid (welfare).
The EVC CalWORKs Program offers a variety of services and financial resources that can help you cover your expenses (educational and living).
Our goal is to help students transition from gaining an education in an in-demand field to finding and securing meaningful employment.
