1~ <br />JOCCA has [6] Congregate Meal Sites located in Orange County. In 2000 we served <br />33,812 meals to 517 unduplicated participants. A site manager is located at each site and is <br />responsible for the daily operation of nutrition programs and meals. There are also [3 } <br />Coordinator of Services who are mainly responsible for the coordination, outreach, referral and <br />and provision of services to low-income families and individuals. These services include but are <br />not limited to: Weatherization, Emergency Assistance, Title V Older Worker's Program, and <br />Information and Referral. <br />In conclusion, JOCCA relies heavily on interagenry coordination, cooperation and resource <br />mobilization and/or fund leveraging. During the past year, there has been a significant increase <br />in the demand for services, especially from the `working poor". In order to continue to meet <br />this demand, JOCCA must intensify its resource mobilization efforts through the solicitation <br />of funds from federal, state, local and private sources; intensify its utilization of volunteers; <br />and enhance its fundraising efforts. <br />
