Profile of PAES Recipients and Factors That InfluencePAES Outcomes - Analysis of PAES Recipients enrolled Jan 99 thru Jun 00 (All Acrobat format*)

PAES is the acronym for Personal Assisted Employment Services Program.  Since the 1930s, the City and County of San Francisco has provided cash subsistence awards to its indigent single adults. These grants are administered by the Department of Human Services (DHS) and, prior to 1998, were known as General Assistance (GA). In 1998, following AFDC welfare reforms and the creation of CalWORKs, the San Francisco Department of Human Services instituted its own reforms to the GA Program and created the County Adult Assistance Programs (CAAP), with four primary programs to serve the diverse needs within the former General Assistance population. Built into the programs was the recognition that many welfare recipients want to and can become employed if given the right opportunity.
