Reminder: A poverty simulation will be held on December 1 from 1:30-4:00 p.m. at the Johnston Lions Club. Register through the Universal Registration system using Activity Number HU016199990902.
The simulation is designed to help participants begin to understand what it might be like to live in a typical low-income family trying to survive from month to month. The object is to sensitize participants to the realities faced by low-income people. During the simulation, participants assume the roles of up to 30 different families facing poverty. The task of the “families” is to provide for basic necessities and shelter during the course of four 15-minute weeks.
