Ending poverty takes more than a minimum wage. It takes a new way of thinking.

Less judging, more connecting. That’s how we fix things.

We chose an anchored, relative income standard rather than an absolute threshold like the MIT Living Wage calculator and other self-sufficiency standards because we wanted our income standards to be simple to calculate and replicate. #EndPoverty

6/6 Using our National Poverty Plan Income Standards (NPPS), The Shared Humanity Project estimates that more than 75 million Americans fell below that level in 2019. In comparison, the Census Bureau estimates that 38 million Americans were poor that year. https://t.co/GyBprPgVxX
