SUMMARY:The Urgent Once-in-a-Generation Chance: Getting Congress to Invest in our Children and Youth
DESCRIPTION:View this webinar here. View the slides here. \nCritical gains for children have been made with the passage of the American Rescue Plan. But Congress needs to make ongoing investments to ensure our children’s futures aren’t permanently damaged and to shrink the gaps between poor and non-poor children and between white children and children of color. This webinar will educate advocates across the nation about the critical importance of enacting or building upon multiple provisions in President Biden’s investment plans and proposed budget. \nYou’ll learn from experts around the country who will illustrate the need for child care\, the expanded Child Tax Credit\, investment in education\, and services for youth. You’ll hear from Rev. Dr. Starsky Wilson\, President and CEO of the Children’s Defense Fund\, about the health and economic crises triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic and how they have exacerbated long-standing problems for children and their families. Deborah Weinstein\, CHN’s Executive Director\, will describe what’s before Congress and action steps advocates can take. Deborah Stein of the Partnership for America’s Children will be our moderator\, and a panel of experts will take your questions. The webinar is a collaborative effort with the Partnership for America’s Children\, and our moderator\, Deborah Stein\, is the Partnership’s Network Director. \nEven if you can’t attend\, be sure to register to receive a recording of the webinar and resources. This webinar will be captioned.

SUMMARY:Poor People's Campaign: National Poor People’s & Low-Wage Workers Assembly
DESCRIPTION:On Monday\, June 21st\, poor people\, low-wage workers\, moral and faith leaders\, advocates and our growing coalition of supporters will gather online simultaneously with a (socially-distant) rally in Raleigh\, North Carolina for a National Poor People’s and Low-Wage Workers Assembly. The Coalition on Human Needs is proud to support and participate. \nMore than 140 million people across the United States live in or near poverty\, struggle with low wages and are one emergency away from economic ruin. 250\,000 people die every year from poverty in the wealthiest nation on the planet. \nWe can’t be silent anymore in the face of this reality. \nThe First Reconstruction followed the Civil War. The civil rights struggles of the 20th century proved to be the Second Reconstruction. Our Third Reconstruction will be a revival of our constitutional commitment to establish justice\, provide for the general welfare\, end decades of austerity\, and recognize that policies which center the 140 million people\, who struggle financially\, are also good economic policies that can heal and transform our nation. \nHere’s what we are going to do: This Monday\, on June 21st at 5:30 p.m. ET we will gather online from all 50 U.S. states and territories. Together\, we will build a strong coalition of people to fight for our country’s Third Reconstruction. \nWe are already beginning to plan for the Poor People’s Campaign for next year—and Monday’s event is the first public step. Next June’s event will be a generationally-transformative in-person Moral March on Washington on June 18\, 2022. Together\, next summer\, we will flood the streets of Washington\, DC and create a national stage for the voices and leadership of people directly impacted by poverty\, racism and their interlocking injustices. \nRSVP for the digital rally here.
