Abstract
ABSTRACT The controversial state level block grant system Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) increased our need to understand what works in adult educational and employment training. Critical considerations for the design and implementation of an effective program were identified through a case study of a career and learning resource center for women: fostering relationships; an appropriate physical environment; a career-focused curriculum; psychosocial resources; a program culture with rules, rewards, and rituals; constancy of vision; mentors and role models; evaluating and valuing multiple outcomes; caring about people. These program characteristics facilitated women's transition to living wage jobs, as well as other meaningful successes.
