The Neighborhood Effect

Join us for Dinner at the Square as we examine the relationship between poverty, housing and education on November 15th. Distinguished panelists will discuss the link between poverty and housing and how this, in turn, relates to educational opportunities. They will also discuss what choices, steps or policies can or should be taken to change the current situation.
