Join us in-person at Baruch College to learn more about the new report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine that recommends updates for the Supplemental Poverty Measure to better reflect household needs and resources, including medical care, childcare, and housing costs. This event is co-sponsored by the Marxe School at Baruch College at CUNY, the Wagner School at NYU, and the Center on Poverty and Social Policy (CPSP) at Columbia University. It features CPSP researchers, Jane Waldfogel, as a presenter who served on the report committee and Director Christopher Wimer, as a panelist invited to discuss the report’s recommendations.
