The deep poverty threshold is typically defined as having income below half of the federal poverty level or $12,000/year for a family of four. But living in deep poverty is more than a number – it is a persistent, entrenched condition that is often characterized by challenges like addiction, homelessness, disability, and chronic illness.
Deep poverty affects more than 18.5 million people in the United States. For many, it’s a condition that persists generation after generation. So how can we lift more Americans out of this vicious cycle? Join us for A National Conversation on Deep Poverty as we explore the causes, impact, and potential solutions to extreme poverty
with a cross-disciplinary panel of experts dedicated to unraveling this
complex problem.
