@AsmArambula opens #CAleg #CAbudget hearing: #CalWORKs is a critical, but underutilized, program to stabilize families and prevent child welfare impact, and we can achieve that if we make it a priority to #ReimagineCalWORKs

Current/former foster youth in CA are now eligible to receive the Foster Youth Tax Credit. But access to tax filing remains an issue. There's a clear solution: establishing Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) sites. Read more in The Imprint article: https://t.co/XeBVwdHvZo.

It’s not too late for youth experiencing homelessness to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit #EITC on a 2021 tax return, as long as they were at least 18 by 12/31/21 and otherwise qualified. Help #IRS spread the word: https://t.co/AqeTmmH4gx

@POTUS We need to help our own especially with homelessness.

Have you heard of The HOPE For Children Act #SB854 authored by @NancySkinnerCA?

If passed, it would offer up to $4k to children under 10 & $8k for children 10-18 in state-issued trust funds to low-income children who lost a parent or guardian to #COVID19 & eligible foster youth.

Thank you @AsmCarrillo - thank you for supporting the proposal to expand the Foster Youth Tax Credit and to ensure this will reach our youth and families!

Thanks to @CalFTB for talking about outreach strategies that can help #FosterYouth access tax credits while keeping foster youth status confidential! Advocates are ready to help with outreach and we have 6 counties supporting foster youth this year in filing!!

[John Burton Advocates for Youth @JBAforYouth]

#Fosteryouth can't afford to pay a paid tax preparer and need more free tax filing options! Thank you @UnitedWaysCA and @Anna4Health for helping @JBAforYouth and our partners launch sites with existing grants. Let's invest $30M in free filing services!
