Anti-Poverty Service Learning Resources

 
The UNO Service Learning Academy (SLA), in partnership with AmeriCorps and the Campus Compact AmeriCorps VISTA Program, has had the opportunity to collaborate with AmeriCorps members to recognize the community’s most pressing challenges and advance local solutions to work towards eradicating poverty. Out of this partnership, the SLA is able to provide a space for project materials and resources specifically curated for anti-poverty service learning. The resources found here are just the beginning, and we hope to continue to grow the inventory with anti-poverty research, class projects, and resources contributed by our service learning partners. Have your own anti-poverty materials you wish to share? Send us your materials via email at unosla@unomaha.edu and include “Anti-Poverty Service Learning Resources” as your email subject line. For more information on the SLA’s anti-poverty initiative, visit our website at https://www.unomaha.edu/service-learning-academy/priority-areas/anti-poverty-initiative.php
