In partnership with the United Way of Connecticut, DataHaven analyzed Census data to help Connecticut communities understand the potential impact of a proposed Connecticut Child Tax Credit (CT CTC) on local communities. We estimated how the proposed credits would be distributed across different geographic areas and by racial/ethnic group. Residents may find this information helpful when talking with elected officials about economic security, racial equity, and community well-being.
