Talk:Rhode Island Works

There are several things that could be added to make this page better. You use the EPI report on RI Works: Is it Working? Please look at some of the sources this report uses to see if you can find more information on RI Works. Please also check out this source. See for instance, http://www.rilin.state.ri.us/sfiscal/Other%20Documents/Rhode%20Island%20Works.pdf https://www.cappri.org/programs/ri-works http://www.communitycareri.org/ProgramsServices/EmploymentTraining/RIWorksPartnershipProgram.aspx You could also add a portion that compares RI Works with TANF programs in other contexts. This page does need more information than it currently has. The Center for Budget and Policy Priorities may also have RI specific resources that you can use Sramnarain (talk) 20:50, 31 October 2019 (UTC)sramnarain

Peer Review

     I think you have a good topic here and your sources look good!  Some of the explanation is a little unclear, but some minor editing should clear that up.  I would just focus on making the topic as simple and clear as possible for someone who knows nothing about the subject to easily understand.  I recognize thats hard to do with a complicated topic like the RI works program, but I'm sure you can do it as best as possible!  Perhaps citing a couple more sources and adding a small section about its history and an opinion section from people who have been in the program will help.  Otherwise good topic and I like that it's local.  The content seems neutral, but I would make the language a little more formal for example I would get rid of the word basically when you summarize what it does. Nice work so far!
