Reshaping Welfare in New Jersey: Lessons from the Implementation of Work First New Jersey.

Examines how local agencies have adapted WFNJ/TANF to their own counties. Finds that all counties have implemented the basic program, county staff support the goals of WFNJ, and partnerships exist at the state and county levels.

Furthermore, services for the hard to employ are not offered consistently.
