Welcome to our Hope for Children in Poverty blog

In 2007, Judson Press published Hope for Children in Poverty: Profiles and Possibilities. In this comprehensive reader, editors Ron Sider and Heidi Unruh brought together the expertise of academics, activists, pastors, and social service professionals to consider the lives and special concerns of children living in poverty—biblically, educationally, physically, sociologically, politically.

Hope for Children in Poverty takes a giant step forward in exploring real solutions through public policy and faith-based organizations. Now, with the addition of this blog, we hope to keep the conversation, and the action, going. Hosted by Heidi Unruh, this blog will be a place for discussion, idea-sharing, support, and inspiration as we rally against this national tragedy which affects nearly 13 million American children and their families.

Look for an official launch of the blog on August 1, 2008!
