The 2024 Poverty Matters Conference will be at the Blue Harbor Resort on October 8th and 9th.
Poverty Matters stands as the only statewide conference in Wisconsin dedicated to highlighting the challenges faced by low-income families and individuals.
For over four decades, this event has brought together state and federal agencies, community action groups, individuals, and stakeholders to develop practical solutions to combat poverty.
If interested in participating as a speaker, anyone is welcome to fill out a workshop proposal online.
Proposals focusing on housing & homelessness, transportation, education, workforce development, strengthening community resilience, food security, health, advocacy, and racial inequity are typically chosen.
