Women's Immersion in a Workfare Program: Emerging Challenges for Occupational Therapists describes the journey of six single mothers in workfare--a proactive alternative to conventional welfare--and their emergence with unique talents and perseverance to balance motherhood and work in the face of adversity. This compassionate and informative text uses the participants' own authentic voices--in poems, plays, and narratives--to tell their stories of survival and success in this unique governmental program.
