I. CONTINUING EDUCATION ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
Title of Program
Poverty Awareness Through Library Engagement
Description of Program
This in-person workshop will focus on rural poverty that is custom-designed for library directors and staff. Poverty Awareness
for Community Engagement (PACE) presentations by a Shawano County UW-Extension agent will provide key lessons
regarding poverty challenges and class awareness. A former UW-EX agent and PACE trainer who now directs the public
library in Three Lakes will serve as a bridge between PACE concepts and the library environment. Participants will be guided
to develop a palette of library-based and outreach action plans for community implementation. Outcomes will be measured by
survey instruments in a manner consistent with other CE events in the two systems.
