USG will hold a simulation that replicates one month in the life of an impoverished individual or family. Students who participate in one of two available sessions will be assigned a role and given situations that disadvantaged people typically face. The simulation is modeled after The Missouri Association for Community Action’s Poverty Simulation that has successfully been teaching empathy and understanding regarding poverty for over 5 years. Poverty experts will be available for a Q & A session in conjunction with this event.
Session I - 9:00-12:15 OR
Session II– 1:00 PM to 4:15 PM
