Whether you’re a tenant, homeowner, parent, small business owner, or excluded worker, this online guide offers information about a range of services and financial support. o New York City will be extending free tax assistance to help families claim their new federal child tax credit. As an investment in the long-term recovery from the pandemic, the federal American Rescue Plan made changes to the Child Tax Credit so families get half of the fully refundable credit—worth up to $3,600 per child—as monthly payments in 2021 and the other half as a part of their refund in 1 Compiled from multiple public sources 2022. Most families will automatically receive the advance payments, but 250,000+ New York City families with more than 400,000 children need to sign up with the IRS to receive the Credit. The Advance Child Tax Credits payments began on July 15, 2021 and most New Yorkers will receive their payments automatically. However, New Yorkers who have not submitted information to the IRS need to either file their taxes or enter their information with the IRS’ Child Tax Credit Non-Filer Sign-Up Tool For more information about the Advance Child Tax Credit including access to Multilingual flyer and poster—and NYC Free Tax Prep, visit nyc.gov/TaxPrep or call 311.

  • The Consulting Practice a Capstone Course Moving Students from the Classroom to Industry and Back How It Works
    The Consulting Practice A capstone course moving students from the classroom to industry and back how it works The Consulting Practice provides students with the opportunity to solve a strategic, policy, marketing, or operational problem for a client organization and gain experience analogous to the project-based dynamic of professional consultants. Client organizations are drawn from the spectrum of the healthcare sector, including world-renowned hospitals, pharmaceutical companies, health plans, social service nonprofits, public health organizations, and more. In this course, students serve as the consulting team on a significant project to tackle a real-world issue identified by the client—from financial modeling to assessing program readiness to designing public awareness campaigns. Consulting groups work directly with client executives under the guidance and expertise of senior faculty members with extensive business experience, who act as account managers and partners. Teams, consisting of four to six students, are expected to conduct the research, client interviews, and assessments necessary for delivering fact-based analyses and action recommendations to the client. Recent Consulting Practice Projects • Develop a manual for use by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and international foundations to create successful and sustainable surgical programs in developing countries; • Assess the readiness of a large provider of long-term care to meet the challenges of changing New York State Medicaid requirements; • Reduce avoidable readmissions
