Poverty Simulation: A Unique Learning Experience presented by ESU 7
Angel Mayberry of ESU 7 believes people should walk a mile in others' shoes to have a better grasp on the hardships some in the Platte County community face.
From 6:30-9 p.m. Oct. 2, those interested will have that opportunity to do just that by attending the “Poverty Simulation: A Unique Learning Experience – not a game” workshop held in the Educational Service Unit's north building, 2657 44th Ave.
“It breaks down stereotypes of poverty by allowing participants to step into the real-life situation of others,” said Mayberry, early learning connection coordinator of the organization which is geared toward providing leadership and services to support to schools in Boone, Butler, Colfax, Merrick, Nance, Platte and Polk counties.
