• VITA Site Managers help raise awareness about critical tools like the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and the Child Tax Credit (CTC).
• The EITC is considered the largest federal anti-poverty program in the country, yet one in five eligible families with low income in our community are not receiving it!
• The EITC increases families’ overall income, and the CTC offers up to $2,000 per child–which can be life-changing.
