Senior Program Advisor

“When I was first introduced to A Wider Circle, I was immediately drawn to two words in particular: dignity and holistic. Work provides not just income but a sense of dignity, and unemployment (and underemployment) can feel like an absence of both. Only a holistic approach rooted in dignity can provide the meaningful support to end poverty and restore that sense of dignity and stability.”
