Estimated changes in employment and credit outcomes by race/ethnicity after emergency allotments ended
The sample includes individuals who were enrolled in CalFresh in 2023Q1 as well as at least one quarter in 2022; were 25-54 years old in 2023Q1; had a valid credit score in at least half of the quarters shown; could be classified in terms of the size of their EAs in 2022; and could be assigned a statistical weight (N=555,989). Each row comes from a separate regression specification estimated just on CalFresh participants from each race/ethnicity. Estimates on credit card utilization exclude individuals who do not have an open credit card. Robust standard errors clustered at the household (CalFresh case) level appear in parentheses below regression estimates. *p<0.10, **p<0.05, ***p<0.01
