Preface
In response to national welfare reform legislationthe Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA), which was signed in August 1996California passed legislation on August 11, 1997, that replaced the existing Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) and Greater Avenues to Independence (GAIN) programs with the California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs) program. Following an open and competitive bidding process, the California Department of Social Services (CDSS), which administers CalWORKs, awarded a contract to RAND to conduct a statewide evaluation of the CalWORKs program.
This RAND report presents an executive summary of the results from the early stages of the process study component of the evaluation. It focuses on describing the four themes that have emerged from the first process analysis.
This document draws primarily on the results of the main process analysis, which are documented in MR-1051-CDSS, Welfare Reform in California: State and County Implementation of CalWORKs in the First Year, 1999. The document also draws on two reports on the results of the All-County Implementation Survey (ACIS):
MR-1052-CDSS, Welfare Reform in California: Results of the 1998 All-County Implementation Survey, 1999.
MR-1052/1-CDSS, Welfare Reform in California: Results of the 1998 All-County Implementation Survey, Appendix, 1999.
