Our Mission

Providing resources for a noble pursuit

Edward Wasserman

Welcome to OnPoverty.org, the online meeting place for journalists who cover issues of poverty and class in the United States.

As you can see, it's a news-driven Web site, which finds and links to print, broadcast and online coverage that journalists in the field need to know about.

But it's meant to be more than that.

We want to create a place where professionals can talk with one another about covering poverty -- the obstacles and opportunities.
