Forum on Justice & Opportunity
Posted by Episcopal Community Services on November 6, 2017
The Forum on Justice & Opportunity, sponsored by Episcopal Community Services, connects volunteers and social change activists to human service experts in order to activate partnerships and build holistic approaches to service across the region. The keynote address will be provided by Dr. Kathryn Edin, a prominent sociologist in the field and author of $2 a day: Living on Almost Nothing in America (link is external), copies of which will be available for purchase and signing. Breakout sessions are themed around understanding the culture of poverty and a look at safeguarding the policies that protect low-income consumers. Tickets are $25.
