PAPER | State of Cities Reducing Poverty

Written by Adam Vasey | September 18, 2018

Tamarack Institute’s Vibrant Communities – Cities Reducing Poverty (VC – CRP), since arriving on the national scene in 2002, has been building a network of cities committed to work comprehensively and across sectors to reduce poverty.

This report details the network’s growth which has led to innovation, increased alignment across sectors, more attention to poverty across all orders of government, and an amplified collective voice on poverty that has contributed to a range of policy and systems changes.
