Basics Needed To Thive
Sadley, there's little hope if this town can rise up to overcome the extreme poverty of this socio-economical class in an underserved community, unless... PARENTS do their part ! and the school system steps it up and provides not good , but great EDUCATION, opportunities , and dreams. kids needs role models and examples if they can't get it at home, or school, they need someone to guide them .The children are the next generation and the cities future ! The excessive disability ,SSI, and fedral and state welfare programs are only compounding the problem of poverty and lack of productivity and then drugs and crime naturally play a roll and the generational cycle continues..:( wish I lived closer to help if I could !
