Poverty Forums

The Interfaith Federation of Greater Baton Rouge has organized an annual forum on poverty since 2009. The 2011 Poverty Forum, held March 13, 2011, gathered over 100 people to develop action plans to shape Baton Rouge as "A Community of Mentors." Check back often for more resources to reduce the number of children living in poverty.

Together we can make a difference.
