CBER, a department within the College
of Business Administration at the
University of Tennessee,
Knoxville, conducts research on national and state economic
trends for UT Knoxville, state agencies, and public and private organizations.
A significant part of CBER's ongoing research effort is devoted to an
exhaustive analysis of Tennessee's welfare program, Families First.
Recent work explores the effects of new time limits on benefits and the extent
to which those who leave the program eventually return to the rolls.
Anyone new to the study of welfare policy in Tennessee should also consult the
Case Characteristics Study and other summary reports. Check

CBER
also collects, analyzes, and disseminates data on the demography and economy of
