Family Caps, Abortion and Women of Color: Research Connection and Political Rejection
Camasso, Michael (Professor, Professor, Rutgers University School of Social Work and Center for Urban Policy Research, Newark, DE, United States)
This provocative and exhaustively researched book explores an unexpected consequence of the welfare reform legislation: an increase, most notably among African-American women, in the abortion rate as an attempt to avoid penalties imposed by family cap laws. Michael Camasso, the principal investigator on New Jerseys independent evaluation of the caps impact on births, abortions, and contraceptive use (the only such investigation commissioned in the nation), offers thereader a chronicle of not only the empirical results of the legislation, but of the ensuing political firestorm.
