Tea with Dr. B: Breaking the Cycle of Poverty

Poverty doesn’t just impact bank accounts; it shapes generations. In this powerful opening session, we will explore the systemic nature of poverty, how it perpetuates across families and communities, and what it takes to interrupt that cycle. We’ll uncover how education, opportunity, and mindset can work together to create pathways toward financial stability and generational change.

Light refreshments will be served.
