How CCR&Rs can help:
While many families claimed the child tax credit last year, there are millions more who are eligible but have not yet signed up for the program. CCR&Rs can help families find out how to access the funds to ensure that more children benefit.
- Review and share the information provided on this resource with your staff.
- Encourage families to sign up at GetCTC.org to claim benefits by November 15.
- Personalize this GetCTC flyer for families with your agency’s logo and disseminate to families, child care providers and partners. The flyer is also available in Spanish, simplified Chinese, Vietnamese, Haitian Creole, Arabic, and Russian.
