Bridges Out of Poverty Training, an NFREP initiative of Opportunity Alliance Nevada, addresses economic instability by examining the barriers and resources individuals encounter. We do this by facilitating a number of workshops designed to bring businesses, education, health and human services, and justice systems together to ask if everyone in our community is afforded a ‘Fair Shot’: safe and affordable housing, access to health care and education, a well-paying job and a means to achieve it. Bridges opens up conversations with and between service providers and businesses whose daily work connects them with the lives of people in poverty.
