Charitable Choice at Work
Evaluating Faith-Based Job Programs in the States
The Charitable Choice provision of the 1996 Welfare Reform Act - buttressed by President Bush's Faith-Based Initiative of 2000 - encouraged religious organizations, including congregations, to bid on government contracts to provide social services. This title looks at the evidence for and against faith-based initiatives.
