Ask About Our Poverty Simulations.

Poverty Simulations help the general public become aware of the stinging effects of poverty, and how it impacts families and individuals on a daily basis. This project has been instrumental in building a better understanding of poverty issues, increasing community involvement, and creating more compassion for low-income individuals.

As more community members learn the real facts about how poverty affects families, they are more apt to become viable players in the fight against poverty.
