LEO Strengthening Families Initiative

Join us to discuss the benefits cliff, which is the sudden and often unexpected decrease in public benefits that can occur with a small increase in earnings for families with low incomes. This panel conversation will focus on national policy and systems change around the benefits cliff for whole families, and include dynamic conversation with attendees on how to innovate around these cliffs with two generations in their own communities. Martha O’Bryan Center’s Keith Barnes, Senior Director, will lead a conversation with experts from across the country to showcase the different ways leaders are tackling this issue.
