Infants, toddlers & families should have what they need to thrive. The US House passed a bill expanding & enhancing the Child Tax Credit (CTC) which supports family economic security. Now we need the Senate to pass it too. #CTC #ChildTaxCredit Click here: p2a.co/UWlC2TX

Child welfare is expensive today & downstream. The great news is that concrete #economicsupports reduce #CPS and #fostercare cases. That makes good economic sense and means more children can grow up safe, healthy and thriving. That is good policy. @PCANC

"This is the job of us as a society. It requires a reconceptualization of who we are as a society and which interventions we deploy when, and how. We can reorient and focus on child and family well-being as a set of solutions." - @ClareAnderson16 @Chapin_Hall

Replying to @NCIOM @Chapin_Hall @ClareAnderson16
Over half of all Black children experience a CPS investigation in the US. “It has become a normative experience,” says @ClareAnderson16, adding that this is in large part due to policy choices. @Chapin_Hall
