Description
In the annual Life after Welfare report, we categorize TCA leavers into one of four groups - work only, welfare only, combined work and welfare, and disconnected from work and welfare - based on their annual participation in TCA and employment. While this analysis, which we call “work and welfare status,†provides some insight into how leavers are faring, we do not address how work and welfare status in the first year after exit affects outcomes in subsequent years. In this brief, we sort leavers into work and welfare groups based on their status in the first year after exit. We examine client characteristics by group, then investigate work and welfare status for each group in the second through fifth years after exit.
