United Way of East Mississippi ALICE Initiative



ree
United Way of East Mississippi is showing initiative through its “ALICE” program. ALICE stands for Access Limited Income Constrained and Employed. This program identifies the working poor class; people who make just above the threshold amount to qualify for government assistance.

“The federal guidelines are in place that if you make x,y,z amount of money you can receive food stamps, financial assistance, but there is a group of people that make that $30,000 threshold. They get no assist for their food, they get no assistance for their homes or house, but their living paycheck to paycheck and barely making ends meet. This report is to help identify that group of people to United Way or our partner agencies; so we can then help buy some types of resources for that group of people”, said Executive Director, Derron Radcliff


Mississippi ranked 49th out of the 50 states with the percentage of ALICE households. For more information visit www.unitedway.org
