High costs of essentials like housing, healthcare, child care, and education have made surviving – much less thriving – a challenge for many Americans. Between 1990 and 2019, the median family’s income grew 140% – but the cost of child care grew more than 200%, prescription drugs about 175%, and higher education almost 400%. These discrepancies, paired with increasing wealth inequality and enduring racial and gender disparities, have shrunk the ranks of the middle class for years, with dire economic and social consequences. Our latest brief from the Financial Health Frontiers initiative, supported by the Citi Foundation, breaks down this phenomenon – and what will need to be done to bring back widespread financial health to American families.

Nearly 55% of working-age adults are concerned about their #retirement security, yet many aren't saving enough. Inequities among workers earning low- to moderate-incomes and across race and gender continue to challenge #financialhealth later in life. This brief, supported by Dayforce as part of their WorkWell research series, aims to help #employers make a difference in the long-term private channel of their #workers. Approaches employers should consider include: - Expanding Access: Provide retirement plans to part-time and gig workers. - Emergency Savings: Workers with emergency savings are 70% more likely to contribute to retirement plans. - Alternative Plan Designs: MIT research shows alternative employer match and contribution schemes could reduce the racial wealth gap by 30%. - Equity and Profit-Sharing: Enhance retirement savings through equity ownership and profit-sharing. Led by Dayforce, WorkWell will feature research from Living Wage Institute, JUST Capital, and the Financial Health Network, equipping employers with insights to improve the financial health of workers.

Read Now: Financial Health Pulse® 2024 U.S. Trends Report In 2023, American households weathered economic forces that pushed financial health indicators in opposite directions, depending on whether the indicator captured day-to-day financial concerns or future financial expectations. While these findings may seem contradictory, the seventh edition of our annual Financial Health Pulse® U.S. Trends Report finds evidence that some households were more acutely affected by the past year’s economic forces than others, depending on their #debts and assets held. Supported by Principal Foundation (Principal Financial Group), the 2024 #FinHealthPulse is a critical call to action for financial services providers, employers, policymakers, and readers about the customers and employees who may need special attention, particularly those struggling to repay debt. We urge you not to accept the numbers in this report as the default status quo. Instead, join us in refashioning that status quo into #financialhealth for all. https://hubs.li/Q02Q5Lj80 #finhealth

As #students across the U.S. return to the classroom, many #parents are facing new challenges managing home, work, and shifting childcare responsibilities. The hidden workload of raising children can significantly impact someone's availability, productivity, and career growth, ultimately hindering their #financialhealth. In The New York Times, the Surgeon General Vivek Murthy highlights these challenges and cites American Psychological Association data: 48 percent of parents say most days their stress is completely overwhelming, compared with 26 percent of other adults who reported the same. One pillar of #FinHealth support for parents can come from #employers. Make sure your #workplace offers accommodating benefits and flexibility to ease the parenting journey and foster a healthier work-life balance. Parents: What benefits serve you best? What would you like to see more of? #WorkerHealth #MentalHealth #BacktoSchool
