From the introduction: "This brief focuses on the experiences of 422 low-income Black families with babies, 663 low-income Latine families with babies, and 2,352 low-income non-Black and non-Latine families with babies (referred to as “Other families”). The inclusion of non-Black and non-Latine Other families helps to contextualize the experiences of Black and Latine families including whether they disproportionately benefit from receiving payments. The majority of low-income families reported receipt of a CTC, including 83% of Black families, 77% of Latine families, and 85% of Other families."
