In April 2023, United Way Worldwide released their latest Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed (ALICE) households’ data (Washington, UnitedForALICE). Our ALICE families are also referred to as the ‘working poor', and the most recent data
(through 2021) shows the devasting effect the pandemic has had on our Spokane County households that are struggling to survive financially each month.
During this presentation, John will review some of the most recent ALICE data for Spokane County and Washington State. He will also highlight the efforts Spokane County United Way is spearheading to address our ALICE families, including sponsoring the Dolly Parton Imagination Library, which is delivering free age-appropriate books each month to over 7,000 0-5-year-olds in our county.
Program coordinated by Rod Price.
