OFA Webinar: TANF - A Second Look: Building and Leveraging Social Capital

On Wednesday, September 13th from 2:00-3:30 p.m. EDT, the Office of Family Assistance hosted the second webinar in our series on helping TANF clients develop social capital. The first webinar in the series was held in April 2016 and may be viewed by using this link. The webinar series emphasizes the importance of building social connections and relationships that can enhance economic well-being among low-income families. Research has demonstrated that social capital provides valuable assets for families as they move out of poverty. This webinar offered an opportunity to hear the latest ideas, models, and practices around the development of social capital among low-income families. It featured three programs with experience implementing and developing social capital with low income families as they move toward employment and self-sufficiency.
