How Major Change Happens in Urban Welfare Policies? Can New York City respond effectively to poverty and related problems?

Main’s new book, Reforming Social Services in New York City: How Major Change Happens in Urban Welfare Policies (Cornell 2025), will be the springboard for a discussion of these issues.
