Results from the Personal Roads to Individual Development and Employment (PRIDE) Program in New York City. The Employment Retention and Advancement Project

摘要

Many states are searching for ways to promote employment among welfare recipients facing serious barriers to work. This report presents interim results from an evaluation of New York Citys Personal Roads to Individual Development and Employment (PRIDE) program, a large-scale welfare- to-work program for recipients with work-limiting medical or mental health conditions. The PRIDE evaluation is part of the Employment Retention and Advancement (ERA) project, which was conceived by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The ERA project is being conducted by MDRC under contract to ACF, with additional funding from the U.S. Department of Labor.
