RHA Executve Director, Shawn Burr joins panel on WXXI's Connections with Evan Dawson 

1/30/24 - Why does the United States have more poverty than any other advanced democracy? 

It’s a question Pulitzer Prize-winning author and sociologist Matthew Desmond explores in his book, “Poverty, by America.” Desmond will discuss his research as a guest of the Rochester-Monroe Anti-Poverty Initiative (RMAPI) in March, but first, he joins us on Connections. We also talk to local anti-poverty leaders about RMAPI’s 2024 policy priorities, including housing, childcare, access to mental health supports, and more.
