Facts and Figures on Poverty and America's Working Poor

·In 1997, 13.3% ofthe U.S. population, or 35.6 million people, lived in poverty.

In 1997, 14.6 million people-41% of all poor persons-had incomes of less than half the poverty level.

40% of persons living in poverty are children-the 1997 poverty rate of 19.9% for children is almost twice as high as the poverty rate for any other age group.

Two trends appear in the rise in homelessness in the past 15-20 years: a growing sh(l)rtage of affordable rental housing and a simultaneous increase in poverty.

Two prime factors account for the increase in poverty: eroding employment opportunities for large seg­ ments of the workforce and declining value and availability of public assistance.

Things are heating up again! The Center for Social Concerns is gearing up for another successful run of Project \Narmth. Last year, approxi­ mately 1500 coats were received and distributed to sites all across the country, including the Appalachia region, Indian reservations in the Dakotas, and outreach facilities around the South Bend area. EVERYONE can participate! Starting October 25, immediately after fall break, collection sites spread all over campus will be eager to accept your coat donations. These sites include: Center for Social Concerns * Hammes Bookstore * LaFortune Information Desk * RecSports *Alumni Commu­ nity Service Office * Campus Ministry/Hesburgh Library *All Residence Halls * College of Business Administra­ tion " St. Michael's Laundry Distribution Center Other sites will soon be announced! Keep your eye out for more exciting information about Project Warmth. Keep in mind especially National Hunger and Homelessness Aware­ ness Week, November 14-20.
