Interesting analysis by Lou Glazer in Bridge online magazine. Poverty rates are a huge problem in Michigan and so many states-actually all across America. In order to close the opportunity gap between the poor and high income earners (and middle class), we need to make sure we intervene early with children in poverty levels home. A good start is mandatory pre K education and home delivered mentoring support. We can get our education rates increased when we provide opportunities for poor children to be able to,afford a higher education. This report is worth a read.
