Moment to Movement

Individuals gain perspective through an immersive, interactive simulation that allows them to experience life as part of a low-income family - from single parents caring for children to senior citizens trying to maintain their independence.

To make it work, we need volunteers to serve as community business owners for approximately three hours. Want to help? Complete this form
