If you are looking for poverty solutions, Bridges Out of Poverty gives you the concrete tools, structures, and knowledge to build a healthy, sustainable community. Green Vistas will use their model in our program to help Vets help Emancipating Foster Teens. Like them we believe: "We cannot blame the victims of poverty for being in poverty. Economic systems are far beyond the reach of most people to control. Factories close, small farms fold, racism persists, and the economy fails to provide enough well-paying jobs. What we offer is a way for individuals to do better." "We cannot continue to support stereotypes and prejudices about the poor. There are MANY forms of welfare, but the poor are the only ones who are labeled “undeserving.” Others who receive welfare are students with government fellowships, homeowners with federal-tax and mortgage-interest deductions, corporations with government subsidies, and military bases that are kept open to prevent job losses." bridgesoutofpoverty/index.html
