2007	Welfare Policy and Maternal Employment among Parents with Infants and Toddlers

I am interested in the intersection between paid employment and family responsibilities, particularly for low-income families. My research examines how policies designed to increase parental work hours and family income affect both children and parents. I am also interested in issues facing unmarried parents and their children.
