“Zeke was a pioneer in the field of human service organizations”, said Laura Abrams, chair of the social welfare department in the UCLA Luskin School.

“He was a scholar and theorist who changed our understanding of how clients interface with the welfare state and its bureaucracies. The study of human service organizations is forever changed by his scholarship.”
