EndPoverty Edmonton Details
EndPovertyEdmonton is rooted in collective action to end poverty in Edmonton in a generation (30 years). Our role is one of coordination, with a lens on policy change and systems support to decrease the amount of time people experience poverty, and to prevent it in the first place. We view poverty holistically, recognizing that it is more than an economic issue - it encompasses social, financial, health, community and cultural factors, and our aim is to address all of these aspects to lead to a city where every citizen can reach their full potential.We engage with governments, business leaders and organizational champions to address poverty from many facets: from the way our city plans and hires, to how our governments provide support, to the opportunities businesses and organizations can leverage for mutual benefit, to the ways communities can strengthen wellbeing and resilience for everyone. We are grounded in a strategic framework that addresses poverty from a number of aspects, which we call poverty game changers: anti-racism, affordable housing, access to health services (including mental health and addictions), education, indigenization, livable incomes, and early learning and care. It is by addressing policy and systems across these broad sectors that we can create both the systems change and the culture change to effectively end poverty in Edmonton over the next 30 years. We are always looking for partners in this work. Please don't hesitate to connect with us if you want to learn more.
