 at provided deworming treatment to Kenyan children and utilizes longitudina
 l data to estimate impacts on economic outcomes up to 20 years later. The e
 ffective respondent tracking rate was 84%. Individuals who received 2 to 3 
 additional years of childhood deworming experience an increase of 14% in co
 nsumption expenditure, 18% in hourly earnings, 8% in non-agricultural work,
  and are 9% more likely to live in urban areas. Most effects are concentrat
 ed among males. Given deworming's low cost, a conservative annualized socia
 l internal rate of return estimate is 37%.</span></p>
