Description

Open Doors is partnering with the Virginia Cooperative Extension Office to host a community action poverty simulation. As an interactive, immersive experience, the poverty simulator gives participants a glimpse of structural barriers and some of the social and emotional impacts of poverty. Volunteers are needed to role-play certain professions, like a banker or social worker, to contribute to the participant experience. The simulation will occur at the Navigation Center from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Nov. 1. Volunteers are asked to arrive by 8:15 a.m. for the training.
