5 Themes For Alleviating Poverty

Jan 10, 2008

The nationwide Community Action Network has suggested 5 themes and strategies that local communities can use to alleviate poverty. Essentially, they advised:

  • Get everyone involved.
  • Build an economy that works for everyone.
  • Put money into healthcare and education.
  • Maximize opportunities for people.
  • Eliminate false stereotypes such as the myth that poor people are lazy.

Generally, I agree with those 5 points. Of course, we have to figure out how to get local communities to implement such strategies.
