Fighting Poverty
Crossroads Urban Center facilitates political advocacy groups that bring together community members interested in working towards a system that aligns with the needs of the people.  Our political advocacy groups (listed below) create space for voices often left out to be actively part of the political process.  These community groups work with political leaders to make policies that are inclusive and support people in their fight to escape poverty.

Coalition of Religious Communities (CORC)

The Coalition of Religious Communities brings people together from 15 different faith communities to: 
  • Educate faith communities about poverty and how to engage decision makers in finding solutions
  • Educate elected officials about Utah’s religious diversity and the commitment of faith communities to justice for the poor.
  • Organize events to draw attention to specific poverty issues and give people of faith opportunities to express support for their low income neighbors.
  • Build Community between people from different faiths who share a commitment to reducing poverty and its consequences.
