KCLU-FM (88.3) will air a discussion of welfare reform in the tri-counties Saturday, followed Wednesday by a one-hour special titled “The Vanishing Safety Net: Three Families Under California’s Welfare Reform.”
“Dialogues,” a public affairs show hosted by George Castelle, will have guests from the West Ventura Job and Career Center and Santa Barbara’s social services office discussing welfare changes in Ventura, Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo counties. Lauri Flack, director of the Job and Career Center, is one of the guests.
“We’re taking a look at the progress of efforts to reduce welfare roles here,” Castelle said. “We’ll be talking about social issues and the impediments the area faces.”
The Wednesday special, which airs at 7 p.m., focuses on the impact of CalWORKS on the lives of three families in Los Angeles, San Francisco and Quincy, in Northern California.
