Perspectivas Públicas: Current Implications of Block Grants
This paper was written to inform concerned individuals of the implications of block grants.
It includes a study of the history of past block grants, presents the advantages and disadvantages, provides information for the ones recently enacted, and discusses the actions some states have taken to prepare for the assumption of the responsibility under block grants. The National Council of La Raza feels that the Hispanic community must be aware of the implications of these block grants, so that it might better prepare itself to effectively deal with the possible impacts they might have on individuals and communities throughout the country.
