People Escaping Poverty Project: Description: The problems facing People who experience poverty, racism, prejudice and inequality do not result from a lack of effective solutions but from a lack of power to implement these solutions. The only way for communities to build long term power is by organizing people and money around a common vision. A viable organization can only be achieved if a broadly based grassroots leadership, ---not one or two charismatic leaders--- can knit together the diverse interests of their local institutions.This means bringing together churches, block clubs, parent groups, and any other institutions in a given community to pay dues, hire organizers, conduct research, develop leadership, hold rallies and education campaigns and begin drawing up plans on a whole range of issues--jobs, education crime etc. Once such a vehicle is formed, it holds the power to make politicians, agencies and corporations, more responsive to community needs. Equally important it enables people to break their crippling isolation from each other, to reshape their mutual values and expectations and rediscover the possibilities of action collaboratively.
