Eviction moratoriums were an important part of this policy landscape. Recent evidence indicates that these moratoriums were effective in reducing eviction-filing rates, but many questions remain about the impacts of these policies. Drawing on qualitative interviews (<i>N</i> = 60) with renters in three states (Connecticut, Florida, and Ohio) who had experienced eviction or eviction risk during the pandemic, we examine how renters interpreted, experienced, and navigated the moratoriums; how moratoriums shaped their well-being and housing security; how racism may have shaped policy effects; and how these experiences differed across a varied policy landscape. Our findings demonstrate how moratoriums supported renters and how they fell short, offering important lessons for future eviction-prevention and civil-legal policy making.</p>","PeriodicalId":47665,"journal":{"name":"Social Service Review","volume":"97 1","pages":"423-455"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11090144/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45189198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Comparing with similar sets of private market renters, we demonstrate that those living in public housing face equal risk. Once filed against, public housing residents face a far higher risk of serial eviction filing. Within states, public and private market serial eviction filing rates are strongly correlated—evidence that public housing property managers respond to local eviction policies in ways that resemble their private market counterparts. We report on in-depth interviews with property managers from two housing authorities in Ohio. Property managers use the courts to facilitate rent collection in jurisdictions that enable the practice, but doing so does not necessarily result in better outcomes on evaluations conducted by the Department of Housing and Urban Development.","PeriodicalId":47665,"journal":{"name":"Social Service Review","volume":"97 1","pages":"456 - 497"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42501463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Friedline","doi":"10.1086/725245","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1086/725245","url":null,"abstract":"In the past 3 decades, there has been a general contraction of social support while the high-cost lending industry has expanded. We examine how state-level variation in the generosity of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) cash assistance affects the distribution of high-cost payday lenders across local communities between 2001 and 2017. When TANF support is relatively more generous, the density of payday lending storefronts increases in local communities, all else equal, suggesting that benefits are not enough to replace payday lending demand. Yet local communities also experience slower lender growth as TANF generosity increases, suggesting that the payday lending industry is less growth oriented under these conditions. Further analyses considering the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and unemployment insurance confirm that the payday lending industry is sensitive to social program conditions. Findings suggest that the generosity of cash assistance can be leveraged to reduce the high-cost lending industry’s prevalence.","PeriodicalId":47665,"journal":{"name":"Social Service Review","volume":"97 1","pages":"498 - 539"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44301623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given these dual capacities, attempts to insert a citizenship question on the 2020 US Census heightened expectations of depressed participation among undocumented immigrants. We draw on data from 63 undocumented Latin American residents of Chicago to understand decision-making processes across 15 months of enumeration. Analyzing two interview waves conducted before and during the count (N=126), we find broad census uptake despite widespread perceptions of threat. Respondents situated themselves as invested community members embedded in state systems and explained census participation as a claim for investment in neighborhoods and families as well as recognition of their existence. Contributing to the concept of bureaucratic visibility, this article extends scholarship on system avoidance to illuminate how undocumented immigrants engage the bureaucratic arm of the state and navigate the contradiction of being counted by a government committed to their forced removal.","PeriodicalId":47665,"journal":{"name":"Social Service Review","volume":"97 1","pages":"540 - 568"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44019672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If we hope to correct these disparities by addressing their root causes, we must measure them carefully. In this article, I ask whether our usual measures of Black child/White child placement differences tell us what we need to know to act on those disparities with greater certainty. I specifically examine the limits of disproportionality as a measure. As a way to observe over- and underrepresentation, disproportionality is useful. When the discussion turns to the causes of differential treatment of Black children (or any other children) within the child protection system, there are more useful ways to measure those differences. I demonstrate this point in technical terms, and then I suggest alternative approaches to the measurement problems. Other approaches, I argue, offer a more vivid picture of the problem social workers are trying to solve.","PeriodicalId":47665,"journal":{"name":"Social Service Review","volume":"97 1","pages":"362 - 397"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44912741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
