SUMMARY:Out of the Box Ideas: How United Way Partners Are Changing the Lives of ALICE
DESCRIPTION:April 7\, 12:30–2 p.m. ET\nOut of the Box Ideas: How United Way Partners Are Changing the Lives of ALICE (Asset Limited\, Income Constrained\, Employed) Families and Communities\nALICE is an acronym for Asset Limited\, Income Constrained\, Employed—describing the growing number of families who are unable to afford the basics of housing\, child care\, food\, transportation\, health care\, and technology. These workers often struggle to keep their own households from financial ruin\, while keeping our local communities running. ALICE has grown from a pilot project to a national initiative. By redefining what it means to be poor\, ALICE data and research is helping to build a more accurate picture of financial insecurity. In this session\, ALICE partners will share the “out of the box” solutions that are igniting action across the country and changing the national dialogue about financial hardship. \nPanelists: Stephanie Hoopes\, Ph.D.\, National Director\, United for ALICE; United Way ALICE Partners\, TBD.\nModerator: John Gomperts\, Campaign for Grade-Level Reading. \n			\n				REGISTER
