Join CCFWG and PathWays PA for a virtual dive into the latest Self-Sufficiency Standard for Pennsylvania, a report that includes data on Chester County households overlooked and undercounted in the federal poverty level. The presentation will also discuss how COVID-19 has made the climb toward economic advancement even more difficult for local families.

Joyce Chester, President and CEO of Chester County-OIC, and Jennifer Lopez, Executive Director of Friends Association, will add dimension to the data by sharing the paths experienced by their clients who are working to make ends meet in Chester County.

Community members, elected officials and their staff, and representatives from local non-profit organizations, foundations, and other organizations are encouraged to attend to listen, learn, and join in on the conversation of the implications and potential actions we can take based on these findings.
