Children who receive welfare may have better educational, economic and health outcomes later in life, said Anna Aizer, associate professor of economics and public policy, at a lecture at the Taubman Center for Public Policy and American Institutions Tuesday afternoon.
Aizer began the presentation, attended by about 60 students and faculty members, by talking about the various short-term effects welfare can have on families with financial difficulties, such as improving children’s educational attainment.
