Child poverty is not just a transitory phase associated with childhood, but often has a legacy that persists in later life, regardless of children's talents or efforts. Published in association with the Combat Poverty Agency, this study draws on data from the 1994 and 1997 Living in Ireland Surveys, and compares this with earlier results.

This book is a ground-breaking history of poverty and welfare in modern Ireland, in the era of the Irish poor law. As the first study to address poor relief and health care together, the book fills an important gap, providing a much-needed introduction and assessment of the evolution of social welfare in 19th- and early 20th-century Ireland. The collection also addresses a number of related issues, including private philanthropy, the attitudes of landowners towards poor relief, and the crisis of the poor law during the Great Famine of 1845-1850. Together, these interlinking contributions both survey current research and suggest new areas for investigation, providing further stimulus to the growing field of Irish welfare history.

The Irish experience of the Great Recession was characterised by a large increase in unemployment, little change in relative poverty measures but a large increase in basic deprivation, which affected children worst. We show that, from 2004 to 2018, parental employment and high household work intensity decreased the risk of a child living in poverty. In the face of widespread COVID-19 employment losses, we simulate how child income poverty rates will evolve over the course of 2020. Without an economic recovery, child income poverty rates could rise as high as 23 per cent, a one-third increase in the rate relative to the start of 2020. A partial economic recovery decreases the surge in child income poverty, which rises to a maximum of 19 per cent, a one-seventh increase in the rate relative to the start of 2020. We conclude that a partial economic recovery in the latter half of the year, coupled with an extension of emergency income supports for the entirety of 2020, would bring child income poverty levels only moderately above the level they would have been at in a counterfactual where COVID-19-related job losses did not occur (an average increase of between one-eleventh to a maximum of oneseventh).

The strengths and abilities children develop from infancy through adolescence are crucial for their physical, emotional, and cognitive growth, which in turn help them to achieve success in school and to become responsible, economically self-sufficient, and healthy adults. Capable, responsible, and healthy adults are clearly the foundation of a well-functioning and prosperous society, yet America's future is not as secure as it could be because millions of American children live in families with incomes below the poverty line. A wealth of evidence suggests that a lack of adequate economic resources for families with children compromises these children's ability to grow and achieve adult success, hurting them and the broader society. A Roadmap to Reducing Child Poverty reviews the research on linkages between child poverty and child well-being, and analyzes the poverty-reducing effects of major assistance programs directed at children and families. This report also provides policy and program recommendations for reducing the number of children living in poverty in the United States by half within 10 years.
