Spotlight On Poverty: Building Community to End Poverty

People living in poverty often lack the social networks – strong families, circles of friends, institutions within the larger community – that could help them achieve economic stability. This session explores the obstacles faced by the poor and the ways in which supportive communities can help them overcome poverty through mentorships, education, training and the right resources. Speakers: Lorain Crowl, Executive Director, United Housing Connections; Toni Taylor, Circles South Carolina
