On Thursday, Aug. 3, OACAC is hosting a Poverty Simulation in partnership with the Doula Foundation and we’re looking for volunteers who would like to help this be a powerful experience!
During a simulation, participants role-play a month in poverty and experience low-income families’ lives, which may include taking children to school, looking for employment, paying bills, etc. Volunteers simulate the roles of businesses and organizations in a community, such as a teacher, employer, mortgage company, and more. The experience is followed by a debriefing, giving all a chance to reflect and comment on what they have learned. Volunteers do not need to have special knowledge to help during a simulation – all instructions will be provided on the day of the event.
