Bay Area families' incomes are simply insufficient to pay for basic household costs for themselves and their children. Where do they turn? Although some low-wage workers do utilize public programs like subsidized food and child care, these programs are structured to be emergency assistance. Other low-wage workers are in the double bind of earning too much to qualify for public assistance, but too little to cover those costs out of pocket. Eligibility for many assistance programs is based on the Federal Poverty Level, which measures only the cost of food multiplied by three. The Federal Poverty Level simply no longer adequately represents the cost of living for today's working parents, who must pay for not only food but also child care, housing, transportation, and health care. In this report on the San Francisco Bay Area, nine counties are profiled, showing the monthly expenses for families of various sizes and the number of families who are not earning enough to cover these expenses. The report also describes how some local nonprofits are using the Standard to help increase economic self-sufficiency and proven strategies that improve the lives of low-wage workers. The nonprofits highlighted in this report are helping families move toward economic self-sufficiency by challenging some of the complex factors that prevent families from moving out of poverty.

The Working Poor Project is part of an overall effort to build the field serving low-income workers with dependent family members ("the working poor"). In order to have a cohesive strategy in building this field, NEDLC has studied the demographics and distribution of the working poor and identified the public and private policies and practices that may assist working families to reach self-sufficiency, as well as the policies, practices and economic trends that may be causing many working families to remain in poverty. Finally, it has been necessary to look at the effectiveness of service providers to create programs that improve the skills, wages and career opportunities of the working poor. This last task is the objective of this report and it will accomplish this by using case studies to look at three successful programs. In November 2002, The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation (Hewlett) funded the National Economic Development and Law Center to carry out a two year project aimed at building: (1) the field of service providers and (2) a greater pool of financial investment to support the working poor in career advancement and wage gains. The specific intent of this report is to learn from three successful projects funded by Hewlett through its Employment Development program.

This book describes the challenges facing the country's working poor, drawing lessons from practice and policy to recommend approaches for helping low-wage workers advance to better-paying jobs. Part I overviews the low-wage workforce and the employers who hire them, and Part II summarizes the evidence on strategies to improve workers' skills, supplement their wages, and provide greater support. Part III focuses on challenges encountered by groups such as women and immigrants, and Part IV assesses the potential contributions of community colleges, employers, and unions. Much of this material originated at a May 2000 conference held in Washington, DC. The editors are affiliated with Jobs for the Future. c. Book News Inc.
