The Problem
Many families face barriers to access evidence-based financial tools, such as the Earner Income Tax Credit, 529 college savings accounts, and financial coaching, which help families build economic stability and improve children's life trajectories.
One in five eligible families do not claim the EITC.
The Solution
"Health care stystems and financial service organizations can collaborate via Medical Financial Partnerships to improve health by reducing family financial strain. Our approach helps families grow assets by increasing savings, decreasing debt, and improving credit and economic opportunity while building a solid foundation for lifelong financial, physical, and mental health."
