ALICE Report Presentation and UW Extension Poverty Simulation
GREEN BAY – On November 28th from 12:00 to 1 pm, YWCA Greater Green Bay will host a presentation of the United Way’s Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed (ALICE) Report. This report tells a story of financial hardship in Wisconsin, spotlights a large population of residents who work at lesser-paying jobs, have little or no savings, and are one unplanned expense away from a crisis.
Presented by Sarah Inman of the Brown County United Way, the report includes county-by-county and town-level data. Ten percent of Brown County households live in poverty, while 24% are ALICE: people earning above the federal poverty level, who still struggle to afford basic needs. Poverty + ALICE combined equates to one in three Brown County households struggling to make ends meet.
A Poverty Simulation will immediately follow the presentation from 1:00-3 pm. Judy Knudsen, Area Extension Director, and UW Extension will lead the simulation. The object is to sensitize participants to the realities of life faced by low-income people in the greater Green Bay community.
This event held at 230 South Madison Street, is free and open to the public. Through the Stand Against Racism and Speaker Series, the YWCA is working to help build an inclusive, welcoming community through collaboration, education and discussion.
During this time, participants will have a safe place to ask questions and get reliable answers.
