Mark Courtney is a faculty association of the Chapin Hall Center for Children at the University of Chicago and since 1999 has analyzed Wisconsin’s innovative program for putting welfare applicants to work. He said in a July 24, 2006, Washington Post editorial that today’s welfare applicants are extremely needy and will need help to work their way out of poverty, which could make it difficult for states to meet tough new work requirements.
