Poverty Fact Sheet
Poverty Fact Sheets present a summary of key findings on a single poverty-related topic. They are produced by an undergraduate intern under the guidance of IRP staff and affiliates through a collaboration between IRP and the UW–Madison Morgridge Center for Public Service. The fact sheets aim to raise awareness of poverty and inequality among the campus community, especially undergraduate students.
