Half in Ten Poverty Report and Action Toolkit Release

Join us for the release of The Half in Ten Poverty Indicators Report and Toolkit

Presenter: Melissa Boteach, Half in Ten Manager at American Progress

A prescription to cut poverty and promote prosperity

Please RSVP as Lunch will be served!

Indicators Report and Action Toolkit This report will include the latest poverty data but will also cover a host of other indicators, around 20 or so to track how we're doing in creating real change for folks, not just moving them $1 over the poverty line. The Action Toolkit is an interactive tool for advocacy efforts to reduce poverty. THIS IS A PARTICIPATORY MEETING WITH FULL DISCUSSION. PLAN TO TAKE ACTION! We want to continue to raise awareness of the issues of poverty in Colorado, examine policy remedies to help families escape poverty and become economically stable, and establish a framework to support policymakers over the next several years.
