Pay-for-Outcomes: Transforming Federal Social Programs to Expand Individual Well-Being

Every year, the federal government spends billions of dollars on social programs that are intended to help at-risk individuals, who are vulnerable to poverty and dependence on government safety-net programs, achieve self-sufficiency. Leading examples include employment and training programs ($18.9 billion in federal spending in fiscal year 2019); substance abuse treatment programs ($10.5 billion in FY 2017); and recidivism reduction programs ($68 million in FY 2015).
