Many of these workers could be lifted out of poverty if they received a sufficient boost to their wages. On the other hand, because the benefits are means-tested, these workers and their families could lose access to these benefits and services. What would the impact of a countywide minimum wage be on the lives of social services clients with jobs and their families? Would the loss of benefits mean overall loss of resources, or could wage increases make up for the value of lost benefits? This session will include representatives of the Department of Social Services, other service providers with DSS clients, and community-based organizations.This convening is part of a broader effort to bring together workers, employers, community organizations, researchers, and policymakers to better understand the economic realities facing residents of Tompkins County. We welcome anyone interested in labor, economic policy, community wellbeing, and fair wages to participate.Come learn, share perspectives, and help shape the conversation.If you have any feedback, questions, or suggestions regarding the Tompkins County Minimum Wage Convening: Public Benefits, we encourage you to complete the survey below:https://cornell.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8eMaI9WM2qdl28S
