UPLIFT Chatham Cost of Poverty Experience / Poverty Simulation
On November 9th, UPFLIFT Chatham (formerly Circles Chatham) will be offering a Cost of Poverty Experience at Chatham UMC (4 miles South of the Pittsboro circle). Included are, first, a workshop on the perspectives of poverty, where you will participate in a group discussion and learn about the scope and challenges of poverty. Then, you will participate in a poverty simulation, which is an immersive role-play learning experience that gives participants an opportunity to experience poverty firsthand through the eyes of real people who have lived life facing its challenges. Check in is at 8am, and the workshops will last until around 1:30pm. A donation of $20/person is suggested but not required, and includes lunch. Contact Ellen Grand if interested.
