MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WORKFORCE INNOVATION AND OPPORTUNITY ACT (WIOA) WORKSOURCE SNOHOMISH COUNTY SYSTEM PARTNERS July 1, 2022 —June 30, 2025 I. Introduction A. Purpose This Memorandum of Understanding, its attachment, and items incorporated by reference, hereafter referred to as "MOU," is entered into in the spirit of cooperation and collaboration by Workforce Snohomish and WorkSource Snohomish County workforce development system signatory partners, hereafter referred to as "Partners." Signatories to this MOU include all mandatory Partners listed in the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act of 2014 (WIOA) Section 121(b)(1)(B) and 20 CFR 678.400 as well as those non-mandatory organizations who partner with the WorkSource Snohomish County System in a significant way and the Chief Local Elected Official, whose signature indicates "agreement" per WIOA Section 121 (c)(2)(A). B. Infrastructure The WorkSource Snohomish County System will operate a minimum of one comprehensive full-service One-Stop Center and may operate Affiliate or Specialized Sites at locations certified by the Workforce Snohomish Board of Directors. Job seekers entering these sites are engaged and assessed with information shared between Partners. This allows needed services to be bundled for each job seeker. In addition, services may be provided at any Specialized Site. C. Goals Resources will be utilized and costs will be shared to serve mutual customers, both job seekers and businesses, through a WorkSource Integrated Service Delivery model (ISD). ISD is the delivery of services in a manner that aligns/braids the resources of participating Partners to seamlessly address the employment and training needs of System customers. The intent of ISD is to provide a full range of services that may be needed by a given job seeker and reduce duplicative activities in the provision of services. 2022—2025 Snohomish County WIOA MOU Page I 1
