The Impact of the Expanded Child Tax Credit (CTC) on Families Raising Children with Disabilities

This webinar will present findings from a recently published report on the impact of the expanded CTC on families raising children with disabilities.

About this event

Researchers at the Catalyst Center at Boston University, the Social Policy Institute at Washington University of St. Louis, and Appalachian State University will share conclusions from their recent report at 2 pm CST on April 4, 2023. Speakers will present key findings on the receipt, usage, and perceived impacts of the CTC payments for families raising children with disabilities, compared to families without children with disabilities. We also present data on differences in usage among families raising children with disabilities based on race/ethnicity and income. Finally, we will discuss the implications of these findings for the continued policy discussion on the future of the CTC.
