Elena Russo talks with the Executive Director of LIFT DC, Dr. Kristy Arnold. LIFT provides families with funds to meet emergency needs and support long-term goals, connects parents to a broader community of their peers and volunteer mentors and provides access to curated local resources and partnerships. Through this relationship, they help parents develop the personal well-being, social connections and financial strength they need to achieve economic mobility and break the cycle of poverty for their families.
