Our strategy is radically simple: invest in women. change the world. Global anti-poverty advocates have learned that investing women and girls is what changes nations. In the United States we do the opposite. For decades our leaders have created policies that punish mothers in under-resourced communities, limit their opportunities, put education out of reach, and, in the end, feminize poverty. Until women, parents, and guardians lead the charge to challenge the systems that serve them - education, human services, and elections - we can't expect to win our ceaseless battle against poverty.
