Conference and Work Supports Policy Paper Announcement: Bridging the Gaps
The Bridging the Gaps National Conference , Washington, DC, Thursday, October 18, 2007 8:00 am - 4:25 pm. The agenda is here.
At the Bridging the Gaps conference, esteemed researchers and
advocates will debate how work supports should be structured in the
future. What would be ideal? How could it happen politically? Panelists
will offer both big ideas and practical examples of how work supports
can be designed to give all working families the opportunity to bridge
the gaps between their earnings and a basic standard of living.
This week, Bridging the Gaps released a report entitled: "Bridging the Gaps: A Picture of How Work Supports Works in Ten States" by Randy Albelda and Heather Boushey. The Report can be found here, the press release is here, and a powerpoint presentation of work supports data in ten states is here.
