Campaign Details
Our community has a social safety-net, but too many individuals and families are too close to the edge or beyond. Despite our community's assets, we have 15% of people living at or below the poverty level and another 24% of all employed residents earning above the poverty level but less than the basic cost of living for Washtenaw county. Most of these individuals reside in Ypsilanti (56%), many are people of color, and nearly a quarter (23%) are seniors.
