摘要
Over the past decade, the US welfare system has undergone a major transformation. How has welfare reform affected children and families, and the child welfare system? This paper provides an overview of welfare reform and its effects on children and families. It then reviews the reasons that there might be links between welfare reform and the child welfare system and the evidence on these links. The paper concludes with suggestions for further research.
