Overview

***Until You've Been There***It's just not possible to understand what it's actually like. However, this book will get you as close to poverty as you can get without living it. It's a dangerously honest book that pries back the covers on a topic that's frequently discussed but poorly understood and shows you poverty from the perspective of one woman who struggles with its realities on a daily basis.***Challenge the Assumptions***She's not on welfare, she's not illiterate, she doesn't have a half-dozen kids all by different fathers, she's been married to the same man for 19 years and counting, and she is addicted to neither drugs nor alcohol. So, why isn't she a financial success? The author defies the stereotypes of modern thinking and examines the true causes of poverty, along with the reasons it's so hard to break free once you're there.***Change the Dialogue***In writing this book, the author sincerely hopes to change the dialogue taking place among politicians, social workers, business owners, community leaders, church congregations, and the wealthy about the causes and solutions to poverty by presenting an insider's perspective on the situation.
