Poverty Simulation

This year students enrolled in Dr. Nollen's Social and Behavioral Aspects of Health course (PRVM 818) will be participating in a poverty simulation.  A flier describing the experience is attached but, in brief, the experience is designed to help participants begin to understand what it might be like to live in a typical low-income family trying to survive from month to month. We are opening the opportunity up on a first-come, first-serve basis. The simulation will take place in the School of Nursing Atrium on Tuesday, March 8 from 1pm-4pm.  If you are not enrolled in PRVM 818 with Dr. Nollen this semester but would like to participate, please email Dr. Megha Ramaswamy at mramaswamy@kumc.edu.  We are excited about this opportunity and hope you can participate.
