Discussion Question 1
The "Worthy" and "Unworthy" Poor

Do you agree or disagree with this ideology? What similarities and differences do you see between the Reagan era policies and the Charity Organization Societies? Do you agree or disagree with their claims of worthiness, based on NASW's Policy Statement on Economic Justice? Explain why.
