Book Synopsis Resident Participation in Seattle's Jobs-Plus Program by : Edward B. Liebow
Download or read book Resident Participation in Seattle's Jobs-Plus Program written by Edward B. Liebow and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jobs-Plus Community Revitalization Initiative for Public Housing Families ("Jobs-Plus") began operating in seven public housing developments around the country in 1998, but its implementation in Seattle?s Rainier Vista development differs significantly from its implementation in other sites. Two factors set Seattle Jobs-Plus apart: First, a year after the Jobs-Plus program began at Rainier Vista, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development awarded the Seattle Housing Authority a HOPE VI grant to tear the development down and rebuild it. Jobs-Plus had to adapt to a changing environment, in which residents were relocated and promised assistance with their self-sufficiency needs. Second, Rainier Vista was very diverse, its residents consisting largely of immigrants and refugees who came from a wide range of countries and spoke no fewer than 22 different languages. Given these conditions, Jobs-Plus faced a challenging implementation process at Rainier Vista. This report chronicles the Seattle Jobs-Plus experience as the reconstruction process got under way. It provides a relatively rare profile of an attempt to meet the employment and social service needs that residents confront when a major bricks-and-mortar redevelopment effort causes both temporary and permanent relocation. A subsequent report will present findings on the Seattle Jobs-Plus program's effects on increasing residents' employment and earnings. A final report will discuss the demonstration as a whole and will explain how Seattle and each of the other sites fit into the bigger Jobs-Plus picture. Appended is: Services at Yesler Terrace, the Comparison Site. (Contains 5 tables and 12 figures.) [Dissemination of MDRC publications is also supported by Starr Foundation.].
Book Synopsis Blame Welfare, Ignore Poverty and Inequality by : Joel F. Handler
Download or read book Blame Welfare, Ignore Poverty and Inequality written by Joel F. Handler and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-11-27 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the passage of the 1996 welfare reform, not only welfare, but poverty and inequality have disappeared from the political discourse. The decline in the welfare rolls has been hailed as a success. This book challenges that assumption. It argues that while many single mothers left welfare, they have joined the working poor, and fail to make a decent living. The book examines the persistent demonization of poor single-mother families; the impact of the low-wage market on perpetuating poverty and inequality; and the role of the welfare bureaucracy in defining deserving and undeserving poor. It argues that the emphasis on family values - marriage promotion, sex education and abstinence - is misguided and diverts attention from the economic hardships low-income families face. The book proposes an alternative approach to reducing poverty and inequality that centers on a children's allowance as basic income support coupled with jobs and universal child care.

Book Synopsis Place Randomized Trials by : Robert F. Boruch
Download or read book Place Randomized Trials written by Robert F. Boruch and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2005-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phrase "evidence-based policy" is frequently used, but it's crucial that such claims are scrutinized and validated. When the data on social and behavioral interventions are presented, high-quality evidence must be clearly defined and the methodology behind such studies held to rigorous standards. Both the Cochrane Collaboration –focusing on healthcare – and the international Campbell Collaboration – concentrating on criminal justice, education, and social services – were created to develop, maintain and improve detailed guidelines for producing high-quality systematic reviews. And both organizations emphasize randomized controlled trials to evaluate the effectiveness of various interventions. As a springboard from the Campbell Collaboration initiative and supported by the Rockefeller Foundation, this special issue of The Annals includes a thorough review of randomized tests across a variety of studies. Exploring significant dimensions of place randomized trials (also called cluster randomized trials or group randomized trials), these papers shed light on recent efforts to enhance the quality of designing such trials as well as on results reporting. The research topics included in this volume are diverse. Taken together, these papers offer important insight into the nuts and bolts of conducting randomized trials: the significance of place in trials; how such studies are initiated; the incentives and justifications needed by participants; how to overcome challenges of implementation; and where to find out what studies have already been conducted or are currently underway. While providing far-reaching insight into the topic of randomized testing, these papers also identify new issues and key questions to be further addressed in future research. Scholars and policymakers alike will find this collection of rigorous research essential in understanding the implications of current evidence-based policies as well as a guidepost for designing and conducting new studies.
