CAI Cares at City of Refuge
Tuesday, September 10

City of Refuge is committed to offering transformation for people living in the Westside of Atlanta, where the ongoing effects of systemic inequality remain profound. In virtually every category (income, employment, housing, education, health, and crime), the 30314 zipcode ranks close to last. Over a third of the predominantly African-American population live in poverty. Only 26% have earned a bachelor's degree. Less than a third of 3rd-grade students are reading at grade level. On average, a violent crime occurs every 3.5 hours. A person born into poverty here has just a 4% chance of escaping it in their lifetime. That’s why our mission has been to deliver all the resources needed for individuals to turn their lives around, all in one place, over the past 25 years. To continue to break barriers and build momentum, it is critical to keep providing everything needed for people to flourish again. The needs are great but with the right tools we can break down the barriers that trap families in poverty.
