Book excerpt: This country has long debated the question of how to design the welfare system, particularly the federally supported Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) program which provides cash assistance to families headed primarily by female single parents. A pressing issue is whether welfare programs should continue to be broad entitlements or whether they should become "reciprocal obligations" whereby work or participation in an activity leading to work is required. Of particular concern in AFDC policy are questions about whether this aid reduces incentives for people to work and, thus, promotes dependency. Findings from a three-year evaluation of workfare programs in Arkansas, San Diego (California), Virginia, West Virginia, and Baltimore (Maryland) include the following: (1) it is feasible, under certain conditions and on the scale at which the demonstration programs were implemented, to tie the receipt of welfare to participation obligations; (2) a number of different ways of structuring and targeting programs will yield effective results; (3) in cases in which states chose to operate mandatory workfare, the interim results do not support the strongest claims of critics or advocates; and (4) programs led to relatively modest increases in employment, which in some cases translated into even smaller welfare savings, but, the changes were large enough to justify program costs. A table illustrating the key characteristics of state work/welfare initiatives and a table summarizing the impact of AFDC work/welfare programs are included. A list of 49 references is appended.

Download or read book Safeguarding and Promoting the Well-being of Children, Families and Communities written by Jane Scott and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2005-09-20 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improving the well-being of children is more effective when social care professionals work with the children's parents, families and communities. This collection brings together innovative interventions designed to nurture children's health and welfare, and analyses which types of programmes are most effective and why. The contributors explore the impact of poverty on children's development and assess national initiatives set up to assess and reduce need. They present examples from the UK, US, Canada and Australia of specific interventions to counter or prevent difficulties in the domains of child development, parenting capacity and wider environmental factors. Many contributions demonstrate the importance of engaging with service users and helping communities to shape and direct their own programmes for change. The final section of the book presents useful approaches to assessing and evaluating services. Demonstrating the need for close inter-agency collaboration and `joined up' services, this book is essential reading for policy makers, managers and practitioners in child welfare agencies, and social work academics and students.

Download or read book Poverty and Discrimination written by Kevin Lang and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-02-11 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many ideas about poverty and discrimination are nothing more than politically driven assertions unsupported by evidence. And even politically neutral studies that do try to assess evidence are often simply unreliable. In Poverty and Discrimination, economist Kevin Lang cuts through the vast literature on poverty and discrimination to determine what we actually know and how we know it. Using rigorous statistical analysis and economic thinking to judge what the best research is and which theories match the evidence, this book clears the ground for students, social scientists, and policymakers who want to understand--and help reduce--poverty and discrimination. It evaluates how well antipoverty and antidiscrimination policies and programs have worked--and whether they have sometimes actually made the problems worse. And it provides new insights about the causes of, and possible solutions to, poverty and discrimination. The book begins by asking, "Who is poor?" and by giving a brief history of poverty and poverty policy in the United States in the twentieth century, including the Welfare Reform Act of 1996. Among the topics covered are the changing definition of poverty, the relation between economic growth and poverty, and the effects of labor markets, education, family composition, and concentrated poverty. The book then evaluates the evidence on racial discrimination in areas such as education, employment, and criminal justice, as well as sex discrimination in the labor market, and assesses the effectiveness of antidiscrimination policies. Throughout, the book is grounded in the conviction that we must have much better empirical knowledge of poverty and discrimination if we hope to reduce them.
