Recent work by Luke Shaefer, of the University of Michigan School of Work, has been picked up by the New York Times.
A forthcoming article for the Russell Sage Foundation, by Shaefer and other experts on poverty and child well-being, proposes a new approach to dealing with childhood poverty in the United States: provide $250 a month for every child in the country.
NCRN supported Dr. Shaefer's implementation of the Census alternative poverty measures in the PSID, as well as other research on poverty.
