In this episode, we recap our annual Breaking Barriers event and further explore the connections between neglect and poverty. The episode features our two guests from the event: Alex Kotlowitz, an award winning author and journalist who focuses on the needs of under-resourced communities, and Michael Tubbs, the former mayor of Stockton, CA and a leader in the universal basic income movement. You'll also hear from Children's Home & Aid CEO Mike Shaver on why the Ahlquist Center is taking on povery as a core tenet of its work.
Episode Resources:
Our President and CEO Michael Shaver wrote a letter to the editor of the Chicago Tribune about the links between child maltreatment and poverty, which you can view here.

Alex Kotlowitz’s first book, There Are No Children Here, won the Carl Sandburg prize for its story of two brothers growing up in Chicago’s Henry Horner housing project.
