Big View Issue Summary

Big View Solution Forums bring people together across race and class lines, in order to find solution to problems that impact people in poverty.  We are connected and when one person struggles, we all struggle.  We work to find solutions to poverty, we solve problems that face each of us.  

Big View Solution Forums are held monthly.  Meetings are held on the last Thursday of every month at Peace Church.  (5:30-8:00 p.m.)  A meal and childcare are provided.  Community outreach complements the process.  Solutions to End Poverty are identified, posed and presented by people with low incomes during our "Solutions to End Poverty Forums. These presentations are held quarterly.  We work together to take action! 

Big View Action Teams meet monthly to work together to resolve issues that matter!. The action teams have identified 8 community priorities.  During 2011, Big View Solutions Forums will focus on these eight specific issue areas:

1. Housing
