Stop Poverty With Policy

Student organization against poverty.

[Stop Poverty With Policy @policyvspoverty]

We are dedicated to working towards addressing poverty through policy. We pledge to fight for real, legal change because food drives and welfare have not been enough, are not enough, and will never be enough. Please help us spread our message. Change is necessary.

By increasing accessibility to public transportation, those in poverty can in turn access jobs and education that is otherwise unreachable. We must fight for improved infrastructure in transportation!
