Poverty and Opportunity in Your Community: What Are You Seeing?

This week, we asked you to talk about the pressing issues in your own community related to poverty and opportunity, and what steps you think we can take to expand opportunity for more people.

Here's a look at what you told us:

"I live in a rural county in Central Texas. People here have little access to good jobs because of the lack of public transportation. There aren't many jobs available in the small towns in our county, and most are very low wage jobs. We need a way for our people, particularly our young people, to get training for good blue-collar skilled jobs, and the transportation to get to the training centers, and then when they graduate, the jobs."
-- Rochelle from Franklin, TX
"There's very little manufacturing in my community.By eliminating the shipment of jobs overseas, we would create more trainee jobs for young people and regain our manufacturing capability."
-- Roman from Surprise, AZ
"Our country needs to encourage companies that are looking to expand, to look at rural areas for locations to do so in...Our country needs to penalize those who moved to foreign countries and grow our manufacturing base back to old days. Every American should be able to have a job and be productive."
-- Richard from Emporia, VA

If you haven't joined the conversation yet, it's not too late.

Tell us how these issues are playing out in your community, and how you think we can continue expanding opportunity for more Americans.
