The Poverty Simulation is an interactive immersion experience designed to sensitize community participants to the realities of poverty. Participants are given a dollar amount at the beginning of the simulation and get to see firsthand how quickly that money is depleted and how the lack of money impacts the person, the family, and the community. Volunteers play the roles of essential community services. The session consists of an introduction, four 15-minute interactive segments, and then a wrap-up discussion. Lawyers and nonlawyers welcome! MCLE credit pending.
