Poverty Simulation
The Community Action Poverty Simulation breaks down
stereotypes by allowing participants to step into the real-life situations of
others. Poverty is often portrayed as a stand-alone issue - but this simulation
allows individuals to walk a month in the shoes of someone who is facing
poverty and realize how complex and interconnected issues of poverty really
are.
After the
experience, individuals then have the opportunity to discuss what they’ve
learned with their peers. The Community Action Poverty Simulation is a tool
that helps participants rethink the challenges that millions of low-income
individuals must face each and every day. More importantly, this tool helps
people identify areas of change that can directly impact the effects of poverty
on individuals, families and communities.
A 1-hour overview of the Bridges Out of Poverty Model
covering the following topics:
-Intro to Bridges Out of Poverty
model -the 11 Resources -Hidden rules
-Mental Models -Language
The overview will be followed by work on specific issues
using the Change Model Exercises and Community/Organization
assessments. Participants will have one
or two action items to implement. |
