people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward the poor and needy in your land.” Deuteronomy 15:11

Jesus said that there will always be poor among us, but, as Christians, we are called to seek to relieve the suffering of those around us who are struggling to take care of even those basic needs of food, clothing and shelter. Nearly 1 in 4 children and adolescents in America grow up in poverty, according to Evans and Kim (2013). Poverty is an overarching risk factor across all systems in the Ecological Model. Poverty influences socioeconomic, psychosocial, cognitive, behavioral, and physical development of children and adolescents. The Ecological Model provides a way of analyzing how varied dimensions of the environment support or decrease the likelihood of risk and risk category behaviors.
