ABOUT THE <strong>POVERTY</strong> ALLIANCE<br />
The Poverty Alliance is a network of<br />
community, voluntary, statutory and other<br />
organisations whose vision is of a sustainable<br />
Scotland based on social and economic<br />
justice, with dignity for all, where poverty and<br />
inequalities are not tolerated and are challenged.<br />
Our aim is to combat poverty by working<br />
with others to empower individuals and<br />
communities to affect change in the distribution<br />
of power and resources. To do this we:<br />
• Work with people and communities<br />
experiencing poverty to empower them to<br />
address poverty<br />
• Work with organisations to build a strong<br />
anti-poverty network in Scotland<br />
• Support the development of policies which<br />
promote social justice and combat poverty<br />
• Raise awareness about poverty and<br />
encourage debate<br />
