Most teens plan to learn to drive—around 80-89% of them. But by age 17-18, many will not have their driver's license. Read more about this research by CIRP, @PolicyLabCHOP, and @ClinFuturesCHOP in @thephillyvoice. Research was supported by @NJMIns and the Possibilities Project.
Many teens lack easy access to vehicles to practice driving or adults to supervise their time behind the wheel, researchers say. phillyvoice.com/teens-driver…

A new brief from @PolicyLabCHOP shows that state policies that boost economic security — like Medicaid, nutrition supports, housing aid, paid leave, and tax credits — can improve children’s health, education, and long-term opportunity when families are supported early in life. Investing in economic security isn’t just good social policy — it can help expand intergenerational mobility so more kids have the chance to thrive.
