About this Talk
Mike Dames, consultant for aha! Process Inc., shares the research of Ruby K. Payne, Phil DeVol, and Terie Dreussi-Smith centering around building and maintaining a sustainable community. The Bridges out of Poverty model focuses on building relationships between economic classes to broaden perspectives and use a communitywide approach to address poverty and how each party must be held accountable. By outlining a new definition for poverty, communities will be able to better understand each resource required for the stability of human life and implement solutions to tackle these problems.
