Download or read book What Works in Work-first Welfare written by Andrew R. Feldman and published by W.E. Upjohn Institute. This book was released on 2011 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a case study of how New York City's welfare-to-work programs were managed and implemented in the mid 2000s. New York City's welfare system is unique in many ways, so the results may or may not be generalizable to other cities. Even so, the case study is intended to be a rich source for the generation of hypotheses and a compelling and interesting story in itself.
