The Circles Campaign is a transformational approach that partners volunteers and community leaders with families wanting to make the journey out of poverty. Operating in communities around the country, each Circles initiative consists of families working to get out of poverty and several middle and upper income Allies who befriend them and lend support. The family is the Circle Leader, setting direction for activities. With the help and friendship of their allies, each family sets and achieves goals unique to their own needs. Carmen Bell has been attending Wichita Circles Network meetings this summer. PVCC is investigating participation in this “journey out of poverty” program. Janice Cox will join us for Chat & Chew on Sunday, August 11 at 9:00 in the Grace Room to share more about this initiative.
