NCCP staff were selected as scholars to contribute to a toolkit published by Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago supporting efforts to provide unconditional direct cash transfers (DCTs) to young adults experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness. The chapter that NCCP staff contributed focused on the impact that DCTs might have on eligibility for federally supported cash assistance and food assistance such as SNAP, TANF, SSI, WIC, and other child nutrition programs.
