Training teens to fight poverty marks Johnson program
The plan targets 100,000 youths with job skills to lift families earning under $5,000 a year from poverty. The $962.5 million request is a start, with broader aid to existing programs, farmers, displaced workers, and small businesses. Poverty spans farm and nonfarm families, the elderly, widowed or single mothers, and those facing discrimination, reflecting schooling gaps and economic shifts. The nation has cut poverty since 1929 from half of families under $3,000 to 30 percent by 1947.
