Tax Credits: What Working Families Need to Know

Posted by on October 19, 2009

Did you know that federal tax credits for families have been expanded and are now more valuable than ever? We’re not talking about a few dollars more for families; we’re talking about potentially thousands of dollars.

But unfortunately, millions of families don’t even know to ask for the credits they are eligible for. That’s why your help is needed to spread the word. And to give you the information and tools you need, we are offering two free webinar trainings. In these free trainings, you’ll learn about family tax credits and get access to free easy to use resources
