Half in Ten partner and Executive Director at the Center for Human Needs, Deborah Weinstein, participated in a recent event hosted by The New School, where poverty experts squared off, debating the merits of President Obama’s efforts - namely, the ARRA and his 2010 budget proposal - to curb and eventually reduce poverty in the long run.
