This panel discussion provided background information about a sample of working poor, working near-poor and working non-poor from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth Data (79) and information about fringe benefits available from their employers. Ideas for moving the working poor to self-sufficiency and resources related to the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 were also discussed.
