Abstract
Researchers have found that states with stronger social safety nets have lower disparities in brain development and mental health of children 9 to 11 years old. The research, supported by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) found that the disparity in brain structure between children from high‐ versus low‐income households was more than a third lower in states with greater cash assistance than in those offering less, and the disparity in mental health symptoms was reduced by nearly a half.
