During Poverty Awareness Month, join U.S. Bishops, the Catholic Campaign for Human Development and the Catholic community in the United States in taking up Pope Francis' challenge to live in solidarity with the poor!
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops is offering a variety of resources to help, including a daily action calendar and reflection questions for each action.
You can also watch Poverty USA's documentary The Web of Poverty, which offers a unique insight into the complexity of poverty, how it connects to everything that we do and the factors that keep so many people and families entrapped. Use this resource to discuss how poverty affects your community and what solutions are needed to overcome poverty.
Poverty USA also has prayer suggestions and educational materials available on their website.
