HOPE hosts US Partnership on Mobility from Poverty

In October, HOPE hosted a visit from the US Partnership on Mobility from Poverty in the Mississippi Delta to share the challenges and opportunities that exist in the nation’s most persistently impoverished region. Funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and managed by the Urban Institute, the Partnership is a collaborative aimed at discovering permanent ladders of mobility to help people climb out of poverty.
