Abstract
This paper examines the impact of actual subsidy receipt of single mothers on their joint employment and child care mode decisions in the post-welfare reform environment. Results indicate that single mothers are highly responsive to child care subsidies by increasing their employment while moving away from parental and relative care toward center care in the process.
