Sponsored by Bridges Coalition…addressing poverty in Oswego County in collaboration with SUNY Oswego’s Division of Extended Learning and Office of Business and Community Relations 

Bridges Out of Poverty explores practical strategies to help people in different economic classes understand each other’s “worlds” and improve outcomes for people transitioning out of poverty. A shared understanding of the ways in which the different economic classes operate and the recognition of the resources that each class has to offer are the backbone of the Bridges approach, fostering connectivity and creativity in devising workable solutions to community problems. Explore practical strategies to help people in different socio-economic classes understand each other’s worlds and improve outcomes for people transitioning out of poverty. Join our collaborative learning process as we develop new skills and understandings in working across economic classes. Lend your voice and experience to our future discussions.
