Every family is different and will have different starting points based on age and experiences. These resources were put together to create multiple entry points for your family unit to engage in the discussion, action, and education alongside the Poor People’s Campaign. Adults are often empowered to take action but are not always sure how to take action in their own homes in ways that are age appropriate, faithful, engaging, challenging, and inspiring for younger people.
There are many resources on this list that will begin to lead you to other resources. We encourage you to work what works for your family as you find ways for all of your family to engage with the Poor People’s Campaign at all ages and stages.
Here are some helpful resources to facilitate what may or may not be age appropriate.
