Why is there so much poverty in America?
This year's First Year Book Poverty, by America probes that simple yet far-reaching question and asks us to consider practical solutions that may inspire us to become advocates for change.
“Every person, every company, every institution that has a role in perpetuating poverty also has a role in ameliorating it.”
Thank you!
