Publisher Description: Discover the real voice of welfare - through thought-provoking interviews with today's welfare recipients who share their experiences with welfare and their views on its reform. Gain new perspectives on their history with the system; their plans, hopes, and dreams for the future; their perspectives on work requirements, family caps, time limits, and other features of TANF (Temporary Assistance to Needy Families) - the new welfare reform program. Their voices provide a vivid counterpoint to the politicians and media who shape the welfare reform initiative.
