In National Survey of Americas families on welfare recipients show that:
Families who abandon welfare tend to retain housing assistance benefits, while current and former recipients with housing assistance tend to be more disadvantaged. Families with housing assistance have less immediate family support and more impediments to work. While housing assistance reduced housing costs and crowding, families still report a high level of hardship.
Housing assistance can make a positive difference in moving families from welfare to work. However housing assistance does not make a difference in families’ perspectives about their economic wellbeing.
