Spend 15 minutes in Your Neighbors’ Shoes
Ever thought about what a day in their life is like? Deciding between paying a bill and buying groceries. Trying to overcome a bad decision made years ago. Working to combat a tough situation to provide a better life for their family.
You can experience these examples and more through a Poverty Simulation. The purpose of these role-playing scenarios is to help the larger community better understand poverty issues so we can all work together to improve opportunities for all people in our community.
Learn About Choices with REALL
Our REALL simulation is designed specifically for high school students. This specially created simulation gives them the chance to experience two lives: one dealing with the consequences of choices and the other that has made proactive choices to better their situation. The experience is meant to allow students to compare the lives and see what a difference choices can make.
