The organization, which is still in its early stages, has already begun working with local agencies and organizations to identify areas of need and develop effective solutions. According to Bergel, the goal of the institute is to “provide a comprehensive approach to addressing poverty, one that takes into account the unique needs and circumstances of each individual or family.”

“We believe that poverty is not just an economic issue, but also a social and emotional one,” said Bergel. “Our organization will work to address these underlying issues, providing support and resources to help individuals and families achieve stability and security.”
