Summary

This study looks at whether giving mothers in Brazil an extra $40 per month (compared to just $2) can protect their children's brain development and mental health. About 450 children aged 7-10 from low-income families will be followed for 2 years. Researchers will measure stress, inflammation, brain scans, and family relationships to see if the extra money makes a difference.
