    Who is ALICE?

    Who is ALICE, and what does it really mean to live below the ALICE Threshold? In this episode of Mission Possible, Host Robyn Davis takes a closer look at who makes up ALICE households and why so many hardworking people are still struggling to afford the basics. She explains how ALICE households can include people working two or more jobs, caregivers balancing work and family responsibilities, and our neighbors, friends, relatives and coworkers who are living paycheck to paycheck and forced to make impossible choices every day. Robyn also explores why the federal poverty level doesn't tell the whole story, and how Brown County United Way and its community partners work to bridge the gap for households who may not qualify for traditional supports but are still struggling to make ends meet. Listen to learn who ALICE is, why ALICE households are part of every community, and how we can help move families from financial instability toward stability and economic mobility. 🎧 Listen to Mission Possible with Robyn Davis on 91.1 The Avenue or wherever you get your podcasts.

    How did the ALICE conversation begin?

    What does it mean to be ALICE, and where did the conversation begin? In this episode of Mission Possible, Host Robyn Davis takes us back to the origins of the ALICE movement and shares why the data became such an important part of Brown County United Way's work. She also shares her own experience encountering the first ALICE report while leading a local nonprofit serving families experiencing homelessness, and how it challenged the idea that having a job automatically means a family is financially secure. ALICE has become the heartbeat of our work. Listen to learn why understanding the data, listening to lived experiences and creating community solutions are all part of helping everyone thrive. 🎧 Listen to Mission Possible with Robyn Davis on 91.1 The Avenue or wherever you get your podcasts.
