COMMUNITY SERVICES
CHILD, YOUTH & FAMILY SUMMARY OF SERVICES
The section provides comprehensive services and programs in areas of community education and training; recreation programming for teens; individual and family assistance programs and support services; disability services; and resources to support young children and their families. Program objectives are accomplished with the support of community advisory bodies including the Irvine Residents with Disabilities Advisory Board, Irvine Child Care Committee, the Irvine Children, Youth and Families Advisory Committee, and the Irvine Child Care Project (ICCP), a Joint Powers Agreement between the City of Irvine and the Irvine Unified School District. Disability Services Needs Assessment: The City completed a needs assessment to identify the service needs of individuals living with disabilities in Irvine, and developed a work plan for the Irvine Residents with Disabilities Advisory Board based on the assessment findings New Disability Services Location: The Disability Services program relocated to the Sweet Shade Neighborhood Park facility, providing a centralized location for recreational programming and resource and referral services for individuals with disabilities and their families. Increased Child Care Capacity: ICCP added 520 new school-aged child care slots over a two-year period due to increased capacity at existing sites and the addition of two new child care sites. Professional Development/Training: The City’s Child Care Coordination program provided 15 professional development events for more than 750 early childhood educators and school age child care providers.
