The Homeless Advocacy Project and Philly Homes 4 Youth will sponsor a birth certificate clinic on Thursday, October 11 from 4:30-6pm at Valley Youth House, 1500 Sansom Street, 3rd Floor.

Birth certificates are often needed to receive medical assistance, housing and other public benefits, to obtain a Pennsyvania driver’s or non-driver’s license, for access to many public buildings, for general identification and many other purposes. Young adults who attend this free clinic will meet with an advocate who will request birth certificates for them and their minor children free of charge.

This is a clinic for young adults age 18 to 23 and their children. We cannot request a birth certificate for youth who are under age 18. Birth certificates requested at this clinic may not be available under December – current processing time is 19 weeks.

For more information, call 800-837-2672.

In Philadelphia, the poverty rate of kids under 6 eclipses all others, according to an analysis of census data by Public Citizens for Children and Youth (PCCY).

The most crucial years of brain development are the earliest ones, when children are learning everything, soaking up everything in their environment like sponges.

That’s partly why support for pre-K in the Commonwealth has reached the point of broad consensus and why support for quality infant and toddler care is growing – we want all kids to soak up the fundamentals of learning and socialization because we know those lessons can last a lifetime.

Unfortunately, in Southeastern Pennsylvania, far too many children live in poverty and that impact can last a lifetime.

PCCY crunched the numbers in newly released census data and gleaned the latest insight for the region.

In Southeastern Pennsylvania, 153,000 children live in poverty–and half of those are experiencing deep poverty, meaning they live in households with annual incomes of about $10,000.

The story is worse for kids under six (in those critical years of development), who suffer rates of poverty higher than older children. Isolating just that cohort, 56,000 live in poverty and half of those kids are in deep poverty.

Of all counties, Bucks kids under 6 fared the worst, as their rates of those in both poverty and deep poverty swelled.

But here’s the good news. Across every county, child poverty decreased since last year and the rate of children living in deep poverty is lower everywhere except Bucks.

Delaware and Philadelphia counties, which have the highest rates of poverty in the region, saw the biggest decreases.

Far too many children across the five counties are burdened by the yoke of poverty, affecting every aspect of their lives. The burden is certainly more pronounced and far more cruel to children under 6.

While we need to continue our efforts to improve educational outcomes to help break the cycle of poverty, there is a clear and urgent need to increase wages and income for their families.

Census: poverty rising among children, especially minorities
The latest Census numbers indicate that, while conditions may be improving for some children and adults, the overall economic well-being of our nation’s youngest citizens is worrisome, according to Child Trends (link is external). This is particularly true for black and Hispanic children.

The data show that in 2017, one in five infants and toddlers (19.9 percent of children ages birth through two years) were poor; this statistic is almost identical to the 2016 rate of 19.6 percent. In 2017, infants and toddlers represented the age group most likely to live in poverty. The disparities in poverty levels among infants and toddlers by race and ethnicity are particularly concerning: in 2017, nearly 1 in 3 black infants and toddlers (32.7 percent), and more than 1 in 4 Hispanic infants and toddlers (27.3 percent) lived in poverty, compared to approximately 1 in 9 white, non-Hispanic infants and toddlers (11.8 percent).

The most dramatic disparities are among infants (up to one year of age). While the overall percentage of infants living in poverty significantly increased between 2016 and 2017 from 17.2 percent to 20.2 percent,4 the largest increases were among black and Hispanic infants, for whom the poverty rate rose by six and eight percentage points—28.5 to 34.4 percent and 20.7 to 28.4 percent, respectively.

The conditions of poverty have lifelong negative impacts on children’s development in all domains—physical, social-emotional, cognitive, and linguistic. This should be of concern to all, since the economic health of our youngest citizens will greatly influence population health and the capabilities of our future workforce.5 As America becomes increasingly diverse racially and ethnically, it is imperative that we turn our collective attention to infants and toddlers, the most vulnerable Americans, in order to identify policy and practice solutions that will support equity in children’s development.

At DART, we believe powerlessness is the root cause of community problems. We unite low- and moderate-income
communities to build power and fight for social, economic and racial justice.

OVERVIEW: The 2019 Greater Philadelphia Social Innovations Awards celebrates the Social Innovations Journal, an online publication driven by the belief that “the potential for good ideas to inspire more good ideas cannot be underestimated,” this year also marks our 10-year anniversary of inspiring leaders and organizations to dream; creating spaces for leaders to tap into their own creativity to innovate; endowing leaders with the tools and knowledge to launch and grow their ideas; challenging leaders to become better versions of themselves, and transforming leaders and their organizations into Changemakers.

2019 THEME: INNOVATING IDEAS, REVOLUTIONIZING REALITIES
recognizes organic leadership re-envisioning the challenges communities face and finding solutions by innovating ideas to reshape communities through innovated programs, policies, and disrupting the political landscape to revolutionize realities to bring us all forward to a more equitable and inclusive tomorrow — today. We believe the 2019 Awards’ theme symbolizes that the success of the social sector depends upon us embracing both tried-and-true traditional practices while stepping out of the box to grow these ideas into new innovative practices.

WHY: The Greater Philadelphia SIJ Awards honors our region’s most passionate social innovators, entrepreneurs and Changemakers whose work and social impact too often goes unacknowledged, yet their efforts are what makes our communities across Greater Philadelphia the thriving region of innovation and opportunity they are for all people.

Postsecondary education attainment rates among low-income, first generation, and students of color are comparatively low, and closing these educational attainment gaps can be especially difficult. Students in rural areas and impoverished communities experience significant challenges that school counseling departments are combating with untraditional ways of working.

Collaboration between school counseling departments and college access professionals creates alignment of programs to build meaningful college and career readiness across the community.

This webinar will examine the challenges faced by disadvantaged college bound students, explore the barriers and successes counselors and college access professionals share when working together, and show how these professionals can support each other to create a comprehensive school counseling program.
