BC Poverty Reduction Coalition
Friend --Community pressure has pushed the government to implement a
poverty reduction strategy. Now we need... community
action to ensure that it is a strong one with legislated targets and
timelines.
You can be a part of this effort to make BC’s
government take action against poverty. As they travel around the province to your
community or close by, it's important that the government hear our
collective voice loud and clear highlighting the pillars of a strong,
comprehensive poverty reduction plan.
Use this easy email form to send a message to the government right now.
We are planning events to help prepare you for the consultations:
Monday December 18, 10 AM - 1 PMRegister here for our two-part Metro Vancouver workshop.
- Trish Garner will discuss the Coalition's pillars of a poverty reduction strategy and key messages to share
- Deborah Littman, Lead Organizer of the Metro Vancouver Alliance, will facilitate specific training to provide you with the skills to host a listening circle – designed for organizations who work directly with members affected by the issues to ensure that the voices of people in poverty are central to this consultation.
Monday December 18, 3 PM - 4 PM
Register here for our webinar, where
Trish Garner will outline the Coalition's pillars of a poverty
reduction strategy and key messages.
Stay tuned

plan!
