Description
Offers insight on the impact of work requirements and other post-welfare changes on the lives of low-income and battered mothers through personal narratives and an analysis of earnings, welfare, and restraining order data; argues that current policies and practices trap women in poverty and abuse; and suggests a new way of calculating the costs of battering.
