Poverty simulation shows struggles for many
![Click on photos below to enlarge.]

Community Action hosted a poverty simulation on Thursday at St. John Church of Christ. Twenty area residents were given various scenarios and then had to try to survive the month on limited or no income. Although various agencies were available to assist, for almost every group the month's demands were too much and by the end of the month they had been forced to move into a homeless shelter.

Mike Fak was involved in the simulation. Click here for his account of the simulation.
