Addressing Generational Poverty at the ZIP Code Level

In this session, attendees will learn why and how one funder decided to address generational poverty at the ZIP code level to reduce human suffering and improve health outcomes. Presenters will cover how to identify the right lead organization and the right leaders in the community and how to engage the people who live in the community. This session will also cover lessons learned, how to measure success, the need for different approaches in different communities, and the risks associated with addressing the multifaceted and difficult-to-overcome barrier that generational poverty presents.
