Stefanie DeLuca will talk about her CMTO Seattle work with Urban Institute staff. 

For the typical American, inequality is not about numbers and statistics. Inequality is experienced in the neighborhoods where we live, the schools we attend, how the criminal justice system treats us, and myriad other ways. Join us for a discussion with a panel of leading scholars to consider how the institutions of American life reflect and transmit inequality. 

Rethinking Urban Poverty for the 21st Century: Institutional and Organizational Perspectives

The American Dream is broken. The kind of social mobility that once inspired our country’s global reputation as the land of opportunity has become increasingly elusive in today’s climate of rising economic inequality. Now more than ever, where you start out in life strongly determines where you end up, and this reality is leaving millions of low-income families perpetually trapped in our nation’s poorest neighborhoods.
