Reducing poverty right here in our back yard is not easy, but PRI has made a good start. Poverty affects everyone’s quality of life and we believe strongly that the solutions to poverty can be obtained at the local level. New ideas and creative solutions are essential to significantly reduce the number of those in poverty.
Your involvement can range from hands-on help to providing leadership for a significant project. Please join us in our goal of reducing poverty in our region. If you are interested in assisting the Poverty Reduction Initiative, please contact:
