DESCRIPTION:A Sociology Colloquium talk presented by Cornell Soc Ph.D. cadi
 date\, Erika Abbott.\n\nDescription: \n\nAs traditional welfare programs s
 hrank after the 1990s\, cash supports delivered through the tax code\, lik
 e the Child Tax Credit (CTC)\, grew dramatically. This talk examines how p
 arents experienced the 2021 Expanded CTC\, a temporary but far-reaching CO
 VID-19 era policy that offered monthly payments to most American families 
 with children. Drawing on longitudinal qualitative interviews\, I show tha
 t participants viewed the Expanded CTC as a fair\, low-stigma support prog
 ram that promoted financial stability and also enabled larger\, mobility-e
 nhancing purchases. Although short-lived\, the Expanded CTC represented a 
 major shift in social policy design—advancing goals of stability\, inclu
 sion\, and investment in children.
