Childhood Poverty Research and Policy Centre's Page

This website gave alot of useful imformation about childhood proverty. Childhood proverty is everywhere we look. It is affecting the unexpected and we need to be more prepared to be aware of what is happening around us. There are alot of children living in poverty, more than we ever expected. Children are dying from preventable disease because living in proverty their families have no means of getting them to the doctor or getting the help they need. This website had many publications that you could read about proverty. This website has a section where it can be used as a resource for policy makers, practitioners, and activist concerned about childhood proverty. It also gives some important elements of policy changes for children in proverty and ways this website outputs can be used. There is also a section that you can read about different case studies from different parts of the country. I read a few of these and they were quite interesting. It gives you a view of what things are like in other parts of the world. I would recommend this website to others to read because it provided useful information about childhood proverty. I hope and pray that one day the cycle of childhood proverty will be broken and there won't be such thing as this and families won't have to suffer from this. Today's poor children are all too often tomorrow's poor parents(www.childpoverty.org).

  1. Vickie a prayer that is very well spoken that oneday the cycle of childhood poverty will be broken. It is so sad that there is a strong possibility that today's poor children can become tomorrow's poor parents. There are some that make it out of poverty but there are probably more that don't make it.
