October Poverty 101 Session

Our Poverty 101 Session explores the dynamics and myths of poverty for attendees from all sectors and fosters a shared understanding of poverty. We're addressing the broader spectrum of poverty – think about your child care provider, the friendly face at your local coffee shop, or that hardworking colleague: employed but still not able to make ends meet.

This session is hosted by the John T. Vucurevich Foundation in collaboration with Palecek Therapy and Consulting.

We at the John T. Vucurevich Foundation know grantmaking is only part of the solution. The need for community awareness underlines all the important work done by our grantees. We stand alongside our grantees by sharing the realities faced by low-income families in our community.

Life as a low-income family is an abstract concept for some and a harsh reality for others. Through our outreach activities, we invite people from all sectors to better understand view our community through a different lens, one that considers the barriers our low-income families face and how we can all collaborate on solutions.
