Families can still claim the full 2021 Child Tax Credit (CTC) – up to $3,600 per child per family – by filing tax returns this year. This webinar will focus on how you can help families you work with claim this critical benefit. You do NOT have to be a tax expert. We’ll share ready-to-use resources to help you provide information to families and connect them to tax preparation assistance. Nearly 90% of families in the U.S. became eligible for the CTC when it was expanded last year. The webinar and resources are designed to help you easily integrate CTC outreach to families in your existing programs and communications. Join Lutheran Services in America, the Coalition on Human Needs and the Partnership for America’s Children for this training to learn more!
