Testing the Social Safety Net: The Impact of Changes in Support Programs during the Reagan Administration (Book)
Martha R. Burt, Karen J. Pittman

This study assesses the effects of cutbacks in social welfare spending on three populations: abused, neglected, and dependent children; the chronically mentally ill; and low-income elderly. The authors trace the impacts of federal changes through state and local levels to the service agencies and the needy themselves.
