Viet refugees to get English class and training
Vietnamese refugees along the Orange County coast will be tutored in English and given vocational training to ease welfare reliance. Orange Coast Community College District in Costa Mesa will run a program for 250 refugees with 50 receiving vocational training, funded by a $149,900 contract with Orange County and a prior $200,000 state grant. Coastline College will operate the refugee improvement program as a flexible, campusless entity using rented spaces. Robert G. Love, acting administrator of the county Department of Social Services, said the county welfare department is not suited for such education duties and will use remaining $51,000 from the grant mainly for transportation and aid for those in need.
