520 "With budgets squeezed at every level of government, cost-
benefit analysis (CBA) holds outstanding potential for
assessing the efficiency of many programs. In this first
book to address the application of CBA to social policy,
experts examine ten of the most important policy domains:
early childhood development, elementary and secondary
schools, health care for the disadvantaged, mental illness,
substance abuse and addiction, juvenile crime, prisoner
reentry programs, housing assistance, work-incentive
programs for the unemployed and employers, and welfare-to-
work interventions. Each contributor discusses the
applicability of CBA to actual programs, describing both
proven and promising examples. The editors provide an
introduction to cost-benefit analysis, assess the programs
described, and propose a research agenda for promoting its
more widespread application in social policy. Investing in
the Disadvantaged considers how to face America's most
urgent social needs with shrinking resources, showing how
CBA can be used to inform policy choices that produce
social value"--Provided by publisher.
