POVERTY

When government undertook to wage war on poverty in the prosperous United States of the 1960s, poverty was defined largely in terms of income. Poor people were perceived as differing from the rest of society primarily in their lack of money, and the apparent solution was to correct the income shortfall in a simple, efficient, and standardized manner. But decades of research and experience with antipoverty programs have made it clear that poverty involves very complex, interrelated and sometimes intractable socioeconomic, family, and individual issues. Understanding of these issues at the root of poverty is at the heart of IRP's intitutional purpose.
