Advanced Child Tax Credit Payments and Nonprofits |
Starting this month, and continuing through the end of this year, the IRS will send payments of up to $250 or $300 each month, per child, to the parents or guardians of the 65 million eligible children under 18 years of age in the United States. Those parents and guardians include people nonprofits serve and nonprofit employees. A major strength of the new advance Child Tax Credit program is that payments will happen automatically without people having to fill out any paperwork. But what if it doesn’t happen “automatically,” as designed? It has been estimated that, while the new program will work smoothly for 88 percent of recipients, “4 million to 8 million eligible children are at risk of missing out,” and they likely do “not even know the ... obscure-sounding, and scarcely advertised policy exists.” Read on, because it takes a village to raise a child, and we all need to make sure that what has been described as the most significant anti-poverty program in 50+ years doesn't leave any child behind. See Are the People Your Nonprofit Serves and Nonprofit Employees Receiving the New Child Tax Credit Yet?

Contemplative Resilience Tools for Westchester Professional Service Providers August, September & October 2021
|
|
|
|
|
The Contemplative-Based Resilience Project of the Garrison Institute is an experiential skill-building program that will help you develop practices that enhance and sustain physiological and psychological resilience so that you may “be well to serve well.”
Anchored by the ABCs of Resilience— Awareness, Balance and Connection—the CBR curriculum includes a toolkit of skills to manage stress and improve self-care, self-awareness, creative thinking and concentration. By equipping professional service providers with skills to cultivate personal resilience, whole communities are strengthened, moving our society toward a resilient future. These program offerings are available to Westchester nonprofit organizations and their staff members at no cost. This program is made possible by a generous grant from the Westchester Community Foundation, a division of The New York Community Foundation. |
