Examines eight programs from across the country that focus explicitly on increasing the size and quality of low-income people's networks as part of their broader strategy to help people get jobs. Though there is variation in how networking is incorporated into these programs, all of them aim to provide participants with the ability to form connections that will help them negotiate job change throughout their working lives.
