Council & CEONet | Community Foundation CEO Roundtable - September 2024

Understanding the ALICE Reports

This conversation will explore the ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) reports. These reports provide crucial insights into the challenges faced by the working poor, shedding light on their struggles with financial stability despite being employed. We will discuss the implications of these findings for our communities and identify potential areas where Community Foundations can play a pivotal role in supporting both individuals and nonprofits affected by these challenges.

Through facilitated dialogue and the sharing of experiences, participants will uncover collaborative opportunities for leveraging resources, fostering partnerships, and implementing innovative solutions to address the needs highlighted by the ALICE reports.

The conversation will focus on:

• What role does philanthropy play in addressing the challenges identified in the ALICE reports?
• How can Community Foundations enhance workforce connections to improve economic conditions for individuals?
• How can we foster partnerships between Community Foundations, nonprofits, and other stakeholders to better address the needs of those highlighted in the ALICE reports?
