Economic Mobility in West Philadelphia

Session One: The Benefits Cliff
October 13, 2022
3:00PM – 4:30PM

The benefits cliff occurs when people face a sudden loss in public benefits as their income increases. It is a persistent and often overlooked issue – but it is especially pressing now that we are facing the additional challenge of cliffs that occur as a result of the expiration of key COVID-19 relief measures.

Join ECS at the St. Barnabas Community Resource Center in West Philadelphia for an informative panel discussion featuring leading experts who will provide important insights and clear advocacy and action steps.
