279. Reforming Welfare to Help Americans Thrive with Randy Hicks | Let People Prosper Show Ep. 110🎙️

Tackling poverty through community rather than government.

Hello Friends!

Join me for Episode 110 of the Let People Prosper Show to find out how to reform safety net programs so that people have long-term self-sufficiency rather than just surviving on welfare programs and how the one-door policy can be a big step in that direction from Randy Hicks, president and chief executive officer of the Georgia Center for Opportunity (GCO).

In this episode, we explore:

• Why does he work on poverty relief initiatives, and what has worked or not worked so far? Is the government the solution or part of the problem with the situations people face in poverty?

• Given that the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) is up for renewal this year, what do you hope to see change in it? How could a One-Door policy modeled after the successful reforms in Utah be a positive game changer for people?

• What other issues should be considered when we evaluate the dignity and agency of every person?
