Can We Make Welfare Reform Work?
The California Religious Community Capacity Study

Can We Make Welfare Reform Work? The California Religious Community Capacity Study is the culmination of two years of research spearheaded by the California Council of Churches in partnership with the University of Southern California Center for Religion and Civic Culture and the University of San Francisco Institute for Nonprofit Organization Management.

The study is the largest statewide study of its kind and will have a significant impact on the national welfare reform reauthorization debate that begins early in 2001 in Washington.
