Poverty Podcast

The podcast I chose this week is “Supporting Young Children and Families Living in Poverty” presented by himama, found at the following link https://blog.himama.com/preschool-podcast-kenya-wolff/ This podcast is about supporting and advocating for children and families in poverty. In this podcast Kenya Wolff, an assistant Professor of Early-Childhood Education at the University of Mississippi talks about rural poverty in Mississippi. She gave ways we as early childhood educators can advocate systematic change; she discussed some misconceptions of poverty and the affects it has on children developments. This podcast discusses what we went over in class this week and it also lets us know that poverty is an issue every state faces and it’s a challenge to deal with. Kenya stated she had a special issue in Dimensions of Early-childhood that shares more information about poverty. I’m going to see can I find it and possibly share somethings.
