How You Can Help Us Build Bridges Out of Poverty

	“An accepting organizational culture”
	“Education, not only of new employees but also of existing employees, about what it means to be in poverty”
	“A strong system of support for people moving from poverty to careers”

  Winners in such an environment include the welfare recipients, their families, the company, and society as a whole.
