El Colectivo RMAPI ha desarrollado un conjunto de resultados y objetivos sist\u00e9micos que definen el trabajo de nuestro plan de acci\u00f3n de unidad. Hemos analizado los obst\u00e1culos de la movilidad ascendente en nuestras comunidades, hemos recabado informaci\u00f3n de expertos en contenido y contexto, y hemos invitado a aprender de todo el pa\u00eds. Estas declaraciones reflejan los cambios visionarios de los sistemas que queremos ver, y c\u00f3mo ser\u00e1 cuando se alcancen nuestros objetivos.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t NOS IMAGINAMOS UN FUTURO EN EL QUE TODOS...<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t Nuestras decisiones y acciones se centrar\u00e1n en aquellos que hist\u00f3ricamente se han visto desfavorecidos por el racismo, los traumas y la desinversi\u00f3n comunitaria.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t More than 50 years after President Lyndon Johnson declared the War on Poverty, Rochester, New York faces a crisis. Among comparably-sized U.S. cities, Rochester has the highest rate of childhood poverty, the highest rate of extreme poverty, and the second-highest rate of poverty in the nation.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p> Las estad\u00edsticas de pobreza en el condado de Monroe, especialmente en la ciudad de Rochester, son espantosas. Casi un tercio de la poblaci\u00f3n vive por debajo del umbral de la pobreza. De ellos, la mitad vive en la pobreza extrema, lo que significa que los ingresos del hogar son la mitad del nivel de pobreza federal. Pero lo m\u00e1s impactante es el hecho de que uno de cada dos ni\u00f1os de Rochester vive en la pobreza.<\/p> A 2013 report by the Rochester Area Community Foundation and ACT Rochester served as a wake-up call to Rochester and Monroe County\u2019s growing poverty and highlighted the concentrated, multi-generational nature of the issue in the city. In the area known as \u201cThe Crescent,\u201d more than 60% of residents live in poverty. This extreme concentration of poverty manifests itself in limited local employment, housing blight, food deserts and the isolation of the residents of these neighborhoods.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t The Rochester-Monroe Anti-Poverty Initiative first brought community members together in 2015, the goal was to address theroot causes of poverty\u2014especially the structural racism that intentionally kept so many of Rochester\u2019s residents trapped in a nearly inescapable cycle of poverty.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t \u00a0The coalition aimed to break down and rebuild systems that perpetuate poverty, and has already helped to turn the tide on poverty in Rochester. A report from IBM in 2015 stated that without significant changes, the poverty rate in Rochester would continue to grow and that by 2028, the number of people in poverty would exceed the total populationof those with jobs. Since that report was first published, the once-rapid rate of growth in poverty in Rochester was firstslowed and then reversed. In the latest report from the U.S. Census, the poverty rate for the most recent five-year period decreasedby nearly 10 percent<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t El 14% de los habitantes de la regi\u00f3n de nueve condados experimentamos los retos, barreras y efectos negativos de la pobreza.
