The poverty simulation experience is designed to help participants begin to understand what it might be like to live in a typical low-income family trying to survive from month to month. It is a simulation, not a game. The object is to sensitize participants to the realities faced by low-income people.
CAPS exists to:
·Promote Poverty Awareness
During the simulation, role-play a month in poverty and experience low-income families’ lives.
·Increase Understanding
After the simulation, you will unpack your learning and brainstorm community change.
·Inspire Local Change
Together, you can be a voice to end poverty in your family, friends and community.
