Promoting the State's Investment in Our Children
This week, WAIM joined the Connecticut Baby Bonds Ambassador Network, a growing body of trusted community organizations that serve the state's poor and working-class families. The Baby Bonds are a one-time $3,200 investment in the futures of Connecticut children whose births were covered by HUSKY from July 1, 2023, onward. Between the ages of 18-30, they can use those funds to make a downpayment on a home in Connecticut, start or invest in business in the state, pay for higher education or job training, or save for retirement.
The Connecticut Baby Bonds program aligns with WAIM's goal of reducing poverty by investing in the futures of poor children today. Click here to learn more about the program.
