What Life Is Like At The Poverty Line

It’s one impossible choice after another—between food, medicine, paying the heating bill or even affording a lawyer. If a person or family does not have an adequate income there are many tough choices to make every day.  LSMO.org  has added a link to the Tour Poverty USA video.  Find out what life is like at the poverty line and ways you can help. If you are a lawyer you can help by contacting The Missouri Bar Pro Project or your local Missouri legal aid program to volunteer to handle a pro bono legal aid case in Missouri.
