ALICE is an acronym for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed
In Centre County, where there are 60,467 households,
30% are ALICE households and 17% are living in poverty.
This equates to 47% of Centre County households struggling to afford basic needs.
ALICE may be your relative, friend, colleague, or neighbor, or you might be ALICE.
ALICE may also be your health care provider, teacher, retail clerk, sanitation worker, and others.
ALICE workers are the backbone of our economy, with the pandemic making it crystal clear just how much we need them.
ALICE households and households in poverty are forced to make tough choices, such as deciding between quality child care or paying the rent — choices that have long-term consequences not only for their families, but for all.
Join us as we #LIVEUNITED for ALICE and help support our neighbors in need.
