Poverty is a reality for many individuals and families. But unless you’ve experienced poverty, it’s difficult to truly understand. The Community Action Poverty Simulation (CAPS) bridges that gap from misconception to understanding.
CAPS is an interactive immersion experience. It sensitizes community participants to the realities of poverty. CAPS is not a game. It is based on real Community Action clients and their lives. During this event you will spend a simulated month in the poverty experienced by Community Action clients.
Registration is REQUIIRED and space is limited to 80 participants. To register, go to: https://tinyurl.com/59344asa
CAPS exists to:
>Promote Poverty Awareness. During the simulation, role-play a month in poverty and experience low-income families’ lives.
>Increase Understanding. After the simulation, you will unpack your learning and brainstorm community change.
>Inspire Local Change. Together, you can be a voice to end poverty in your family, friends and community.
Do Good Roseville hosted a Poverty Simulation in 2019. To find out more, go to https://dogoodroseville.com/poverty-simulation/
Please note: the program begins at 10 am but participants should arrive no later than 9:45.
