BEYOND THE NUMBERS
In Case You Missed It . . .
This week and last week at CBPP, we focused on food assistance, health, and the economy.
- On food assistance, we updated our quick guide to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program eligibility and benefits. (Este contenido está disponible en español.)
- On health, we updated our resource tracking states’ unwinding from Medicaid continuous coverage.
- On the economy, we updated our backgrounders on how many weeks of unemployment compensation are available per state and on the recovery from the pandemic recession.
