Rancho Santiago Community College District (RSCCD), through its two colleges, Santa Ana College (SAC) and Santiago Canyon College (SCC), provides a comprehensive program of instruction and student support services for CalWORKs participants. 

The CalWORKs program's short-term program goal is to prepare participants to move into unsubsidized employment and its long term goal is to prepare them to take active control of their lives and management of their work careers. 

RSCCD  program services include case management, vocational training, child care, work experience, job services, and student support services.

Vocational instruction is augmented by basic skills upgrading through the Success Center, and employability skills training and esteem building through special workshops and classes.
