Poverty Simulation Opportunity by Great Rivers United Way
Poverty is a reality for many individuals and families. Unless, you have experienced poverty, it’s extremely difficult to really understand. This is a FREE opportunity for staff to get a sense of the realities faced by low-income people.
During this simulation exercise, participants will assume identities of family members for one “month.” During four 15- minute weeks they try to navigate daily life on a low-income budget.
If you would like to attend please RSVP by August 30th to Julie Nelson at jnelson@gruw.org or call 608-796-1400. This will be held at 1700 Oak Forest Drive, Onalaska, WI
