Poverty Spiral Simulation with UPMC

Description
Join United Way as we facilitate the Poverty Spiral simulation with UPMC!

The Poverty Spiral provides an opportunity to increase empathy towards those in our region who experience poverty and better understand the decision-making required to survive in financial instability. This simulation requires you to put yourself in the shoes of someone else and face situations without clear solutions. The Poverty Spiral Simulation will take place from 2-3:30pm.

We hope that this interactive and impactful experiences will leave you with an open mind, challenge your preconceived notions about poverty, increase awareness of the inequities faced by many of our Southwestern PA neighbors, and ask yourself, "What next?"

This event will take place at 600 Grant St. Pittsburgh, Pa 15219. If you have any questions, please reach out to Allaina Wagner at allaina.wagner@unitedwayswpa.org
