Release of Report on PA Self-Sufficiency Standard
Posted by on June 9, 2006
What income does a family of four with two working adults need to meet its basic needs in Pennsylvania? What about a single parent with two children? Are income needs different in Philadelphia than they are in Dauphin or Allegheny Counties? How far can wages alone go in meeting the basic needs of hardworking Pennsylvanians?
PathWaysPA answers these and a host of other questions as it presents a true picture of the cost of living and working in each of Pennsylvania’s counties and metropolitan areas. The 2006 Self-Sufficiency Standard for Pennsylvania report will be released on Thursday, June 22, 2006. The release will be held:
June 22, 2006, 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
Capitol Building, Room 60 East Wing
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
Guest Speakers Include
* Estelle Richman, Secretary of Department of Public Welfare
* Sandi Vito, Deputy Secretary for Workforce Development, Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry
* Jane Clare Orie, Pennsylvania State Senate
* Tony Ross, President, United Way of Pennsylvania
