The Work Experience Program (WEP), an innovative workfare program, and the Employment Services and Placement (ESP) program, an innovative job training and outplacement assistance program, were launched in 1995 and 2000, respectively, by New York City. When each of these mandatory programs was initiated, the entire cohort of eligible recipients for each program could not be enrolled simultaneously. This creates the opportunity to identify the effect of each of these programs using a natural experiment in which a cohort of recipients who were selected for the program during a given period are compared to a cohort who were not selected during that period. Ultimately, each member of the latter cohort who remained eligible was selected for the respective program, and recipients were selected for the respective program solely based on observable characteristics.

The Work Experience Program (WEP), an innovative workfare program, and the Employment Services and Placement (ESP) program, an innovative job training and outplacement assistance program, were launched in 1995 and 2000, respectively, by New York City. When each of these mandatory programs was initiated, the entire cohort of eligible recipients for each program could not be enrolled simultaneously. This creates the opportunity to identify the effect of each of these programs using a natural experiment in which a cohort of recipients who were selected for the program during a given period are compared to a cohort who were not selected during that period. Ultimately, each member of the latter cohort who remained eligible was selected for the respective program, and recipients were selected for the respective program solely based on observable characteristics.

After adjusting for the two previous factors, the results indicate that: (1) the ESP program increases the likelihood that a general assistance recipient will start a job by between eight and thirteen and half percentage points, (2) the WEP increases the likelihood that a general assistance recipient will exit welfare by approximately seventeen and a half percentage points, and (3) the ESP program increases the likelihood that a family assistance recipient will start a job by between eight and eleven percentage points. Furthermore, the majority of recipients who start a job after participating in the ESP program remain off welfare for the period under study. If one could fully adjust for the subsequent enrollment of members of the comparison group, the estimated treatment effect would almost certainly be larger.

One of the most intriguing findings regarding the WEP is that recipients exit welfare before their WEP assignment begins; that is, simply being informed that one was selected for the WEP generates the observed effect. Another intriguing finding is that the ESP program had any effect at all given the very limited training the participants received.

Finally, the robustness of the findings are confirmed using additional dependent variables and comparison groups, and each program passes a rudimentary cost benefit test with the WEP being particularly cost effective.
