The Home front: implications of welfare reform for housing policy

Abstract

The recent welfare reform debate has shaped a new standard for safety net programs -- not only must they redress problems, they must help move people toward economic self-sufficiency. But, until recently, government housing programs have been left out of this debate. In The Home Front, leading housing and welfare experts offer new research on the projected impacts of welfare reform on housing; outline lessons learned from past employment-focused welfare programs; document the need for evaluation of housing programs; and discuss the challenges welfare reform poses for housing administrators at the state and local levels.
