This PowerPoint presentation provides some graphical means of understanding child poverty in Connecticut. It contains regional and local maps describing regional and local poverty rates, unemployment, check cashing services, housing costs, wage and employment trends, and use of the federal Earned Income Tax Credit.

We envision a Connecticut that creates opportunity for everyone, not just the lucky and privileged few. Together, we can ensure a prosperous future for all of our children.
