Labor plays a neglected role in the operation of social programs. Those who deliver goods and services, and relationships necessary for social well-being, have not been adequately recognized and studied. Social policy has been considered solely as the interaction of values, goals, resources, and programs. Understanding of the place of labor in the human services and of the structure of the human service labor market is limited. For clients of human services, the reception of goods, services, and relationships necessitates relatively close contact with service providers. Determination of welfare eligibility and provision of mental health counseling, occupational therapy, and health care are four of many human services. Individuals who staff human service organizations provide the link between organizational intention and client satisfaction. If they are poorly trained and ineffectual, services delivered will reflect this and will not truly serve. If they are well-trained, this will be mirrored in more effective delivery of services. Beauregard and Indik focus upon a cluster of services, programs, and organizations that provide assistance to the developmentally disabled. Specifically, their study describes the analysis of the labor market for personnel serving the developmentally disabled, and develops projections regarding future demand for and supply of such individuals. By pursuing these two goals, they identify the quantitative and qualitative dimensions of the role of labor in the human services.

The basic ecology of human groups—the relationship between the distribution of population and material resources and the resultant social and cultural patterns—is a subject which has occasioned far more talk than down-to-earth research. Filling this gap, George Sternlieb and Bernard Indik consider one dimension of human ecology— the interplay between housing and outlook, between the physical realities of a dwelling unit and the attitudes and responses of its inhabitants. Their book, The Ecology of Welfare, presents a detailed description of the housing and housing problems of one special subgroup-New York City's welfare recipients in the 1970's.
