Join the Urban Institute and the Jain Family Institute for an event exploring key insights on the child tax credit (CTC) and other cash-based policy derived from an expanded CTC outreach campaign in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The event will begin with the perspectives of CTC beneficiaries reached by the campaign, and a discussion of the campaign’s strengths and challenges for CTC enrollment and impact will follow. A panel of experts will draw on participants’ stories to reflect on broader takeaways about the CTC and viable options for getting more cash to struggling American families.
