Rebooting the Safety Net with Smarter Delivery
Bloomberg Opinion argues the U S social safety net is expansive yet poorly designed and underfunded in places. A new Urban Institute study shows less than half of promised aid reaches intended recipients, suggesting modernized, tech-enabled applications and joint enrollments as paths to higher participation. Better management could cut poverty and child poverty if coordinated across federal and state programs.
