Client Transformation in Parenting, Housing, and Addiction Recovery Programs -- Conclusion—Promising Partners or Strange Bedfellows? Faith-Based Providers and Government Funders after Welfare -- Appendix A: Methods in Brief -- Appendix B: Research Instruments -- Appendix C: Descriptions of Programs and Agencies.This volume offers an in-depth examination of a diverse range of faith-based programs implemented in three different geographical locales: family support in rural Mississippi, transitional housing in Michigan, and addiction recovery in the Pacific Northwest (Washington-Oregon). Various types of religious service providers—faith-intensive and faith-related—are carefully examined, and secular organizations also serve as an illuminating point of comparison. Among other insights, this book reveals how the “three C’s” of social service provision—programmatic content, organizational culture, and ecological context—all combine to shape the delivery of welfare services in the nonprofit world. This book warns against simplistic generalizations about faith-based organizations. Faith-based providers exhibit considerable diversity and, quite often, remarkable resilience in the face of challenging social circumstances. An appreciation of these nuances is critical as policies concerning faith-based organizations continue to evolve.Religion—PhilosophyPhilosophy of Religionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E33000Religion—Philosophy.Philosophy of Religion.210Bartkowski John Pauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut888469Grettenberger Susan Eauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910300580203321The Arc of Faith-Based Initiatives1984757UNINA
