  5. Mathematica Study • USDOL sought to replicate research conducted in WA State • Two primary research questions • Was RA effective in increasing the annual earnings of people who participated? • Do the total social benefits of RA outweigh the total social costs? • Examined RA in 10 states chosen to vary in program and labor market features for which data was available • Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas

  6. Average Gains Received by Apprentices Source: RAPIDS and UI wage records
