Approximately 30 students joined Professor Noah Zatz in his discussion of welfare policies and their disfranchisement of low income working women and primary caretakers. Professor Zatz explored welfare ironies such as supplementing families who “child-swap,” i.e. two neighbors who care for the other’s children through in-home childcare facilities, while not recognizing any earned income of those who choose to care for their own children. Through analysis of economic, political, and legal ramifications, Zatz promoted feminist-based policies that provide a child-care supplement to working families and in-home caretakers.
