SUMMARY:Poverty and Hardship – Then and Now
DESCRIPTION:Watch this webinar here. Slides available at this link here. \nEvery year\, CHN provides training on what to expect from the Census Bureau’s annual poverty\, income\, and health insurance data\, and how to find and use the data online. But the pandemic and the ensuing economic shutdown has complicated the data that’s being released and its interpretation. But don’t fret: We’re tailoring our training to prepare you for this year’s needs. \nJoin us for a webinar that will put the upcoming Census Bureau release in context and tell you how to use its findings.  The Census Bureau’s new data\, to be released on Sept. 14\, covers the year 2020.  But there is also more current data\, available this year for the first time\, that we want you to know how to use.  Together\, these sources make the case for the package of poverty-fighting policies proposed for action now in Congress. \nThe timing is perfect for you to learn about and act on this information – so please join us! \nRegister here. \nPresenters: \nThe Context:  Economic progress means addressing racial and ethnic disparities\nWilliam Spriggs:  An economist with a distinguished career in public policy and equity in employment\, William Spriggs is a professor in\, and former Chair of\, the Department of Economics at Howard University and Chief Economist for the AFL-CIO.  He served as Assistant Secretary for the Office of Policy at the U.S. Department of Labor in the Obama Administration\, and had senior economic policy roles at the Economic Policy Institute\, National Urban League\, and at the Joint Economic Committee of Congress. \nToday’s Reality:  We’ll hear from Christopher Wimer and Megan Curran from the Columbia University Center on Poverty and Social Policy and Claire Zippel from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities to learn about current monthly poverty estimates and the Census Bureau’s Household Pulse data showing the hardships households face trying to cover regular household expenses\, including food\, housing\, and utilities. \nHow to Put it Together:  Deborah Weinstein\, Executive Director of the Coalition on Human Needs\, will explain how to use the data coming out on September 14\, and how to combine it with the other sources to make the case for a Build Back Better agenda that can lead to unprecedented progress in reducing poverty. \nThis webinar will be close captioned. Even if you can’t attend\, register and we’ll follow up with a captioned recording\, slides\, and other important resources that will help you learn about and act on the information the Census Bureau is releasing. \nWatch this webinar here.

SUMMARY:Making August Recess Count: Building Support for Federal Recovery Legislation to Advance Racial Equity
DESCRIPTION:View a recording of this webinar here. See the slides here. \nThe Biden Administration’s proposed American Jobs and American Families Plans provide unprecedented opportunities to address deep-seated racial inequities in education\, employment\, health\, housing\, and income. With this Administration and Congress\, we have a very real chance of advancing once-in-a-lifetime legislation that would lift millions out of poverty\, help all kids reach their full potential\, get workers better pay and benefits\, and expand health coverage. \nBut none of this can become a reality without Congress. And while Congress adjourns for recess this August\, we have an ideal opportunity to build momentum for lasting change. Join the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities\, Community Change\, and the Coalition on Human Needs for a webinar on:\n• Why recovery legislation is so important\, and how it can advance racial equity;\n• What comes next\, and the strategy moving forward;\n• What tools\, resources\, and tactics you can use for engaging Congress this August recess. \nView a recording of this webinar here.

SUMMARY:The Urgent Once-in-a-Generation Chance: Getting Congress to Invest in our Children and Youth
DESCRIPTION:View this webinar here. View the slides here. \nCritical gains for children have been made with the passage of the American Rescue Plan. But Congress needs to make ongoing investments to ensure our children’s futures aren’t permanently damaged and to shrink the gaps between poor and non-poor children and between white children and children of color. This webinar will educate advocates across the nation about the critical importance of enacting or building upon multiple provisions in President Biden’s investment plans and proposed budget. \nYou’ll learn from experts around the country who will illustrate the need for child care\, the expanded Child Tax Credit\, investment in education\, and services for youth. You’ll hear from Rev. Dr. Starsky Wilson\, President and CEO of the Children’s Defense Fund\, about the health and economic crises triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic and how they have exacerbated long-standing problems for children and their families. Deborah Weinstein\, CHN’s Executive Director\, will describe what’s before Congress and action steps advocates can take. Deborah Stein of the Partnership for America’s Children will be our moderator\, and a panel of experts will take your questions. The webinar is a collaborative effort with the Partnership for America’s Children\, and our moderator\, Deborah Stein\, is the Partnership’s Network Director. \nEven if you can’t attend\, be sure to register to receive a recording of the webinar and resources.

SUMMARY:The Next COVID Relief Bill: Why it's important and what you can do
DESCRIPTION:View a streaming captioned copy of the webinar here. The presenter slide deck is available here. \nJared Bernstein\, top Biden economist serving on the White House Council of Economic Advisers\, will join CHN to explain how the COVID relief legislation now moving through Congress is the right size\, with the right policies\, to get us on the road to economic and pandemic recovery. \nCalled the American Rescue Plan\, this robust $1.9 trillion plan proposed by the new Biden administration supports COVID vaccines and health care; cuts child poverty in half; helps the unemployed; provides more nutrition aid\, housing assistance\, one-time payments\, child care\, and paid leave; supports education and other state and local services; and much\, much more. \nModerator Ellen Teller of the Food Research & Action Center (FRAC) will field questions for Jared. We’ll then hear more real-world stories about how the pandemic is hitting our communities\, and how this COVID relief package will help. And we’ll finish with CHN’s Executive Director Debbie Weinstein updating you on where things stand in Congress\, and what you can do to ensure that help goes where it’s most needed. \nIf you’ve joined other CHN webinars\, you may have seen Jared Bernstein\, then with the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities\, make economic predictions about poverty and income.
