Description

Where does the St. Louis region stand on poverty? What can the poverty rate tell us about the success or failure of a region? And how does this issue tie in with our recent discussions on income and education? What can understanding these deep struggles tell us about where we stand? Our eleventh episode explores the issue of poverty in the St. Louis region through conversations with EWG's Derek Wetherell and Legal Services of Eastern Missouri’s Dan Glazier.
