Abstract

Early findings show a steady decline in welfare receipt and a steady increase in employment. In addition, those who have left welfare for work are better off financially than those who remain on, even though many are not receiving available supports, such as food stamps, Medicaid, and child care assistance. In addition some clients are still struggling and need more attention.
