Description
A return to welfare may be necessary for some families on their path to self-sufficiency, and this report attempts to document the reasons why a family returned to cash assistance. We found that there was no single reason for a family's return to welfare, but we did find three major themes: 1) barriers to employment and episodic employment; 2) missing appointments and paperwork; and 3) noncompliance with program rules.
