The New Horizons program is designated as the initial entry point for CalWORKs students enrolled in training programs located at Santa Ana Community College.  

Counselors / case managers have responsibility for monitoring, orientation, needs assessment, referral of students to appropriate support services, and intervention strategies. 

Counselors and case managers assist students in the school enrollment process, monitor their academic progress and make the full array of district support services at their disposal.  They will assist students to develop an educational services plan and refer the student to appropriate district services, including child care and work study.  Their educational plan will include sufficient hours of instruction in the participant's chosen occupational program and work study related to the participant's occupational program.
