But, while we wait for the quantitative data to come in, the jury’s still out on how to maximize this approach. What do we still have to learn about cash transfers as a means of empowering people, and can making payments directly to households be a more effective way of providing rent subsidies?

Implementing Summer EBT: Tips from the Chickasaw Nation
Summer EBT was recently authorized as a federally funded, national nutritional program for school-aged children. It’s a difficult program to implement and sustain, but it’s vital to the more than 20 million children who rely on it to support their nutrition when school isn’t in session. In this podcast, Abt’s Rene Nutter talks with Tyra Shackelford, Chickasaw Nation’s Sumer EBT administrator, about what it takes for a successful Summer EBT implementation.
