initiatives in alignment with the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges’ Vision for Success. To the extent
possible, the chancellor shall partner with existing statewide initiatives with proven results of improving student success
and institutional effectiveness. Each fiscal year, the chancellor shall submit a report on the use of funds appropriated pursuant

the formerly incarcerated, educational programs or courses for California Conservation Corps members, and other effective
practices. The online clearinghouse of information shall also reflect effective practices, guidance, policies, curriculum,
courses, and programs developed by local community colleges in support of the Strong Workforce Program established pursuant
