Lifting people out of poverty is about SO much more than money. Being an educator, I felt myself stymied so many times by the challenges I felt because I compared myself as a member of the “middle class” and applied my values instead of trying to understand the power of theirs. It wasn’t until I became a student and advocate of Dr. Ruby Payne that my entire perspective of the “poverty culture” changed dramatically. I’ll reference her landmark text.
