The December 2022 issue of Health Affairs features a collection of
papers on the topic, "The Health and Policy Implications of Building
Income Supports for Low-Income Families with Young Children."
Funded through the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Equity-Focused
Policy Research program, the articles examine significant racial and
ethnic disparities in eligibility and participation in income supports.
You are invited to join us on Thursday, December 8, 2022, from 1:00 p.m.
- 3:00 p.m. Eastern for a virtual briefing event at which selected
authors and experts will present their work.
They will discuss how policy makers can better understand the drivers of
disparities in access to income support programs-including the Earned
Income Tax Credit (EITC) and the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families
(TANF) program-and identify and evaluate innovative strategies to
reduce these disparities.
