You see ALICE every day, but you might not know it.

Workers who are ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) care for children, check out groceries, cook meals, and help with everyday banking needs. Beyond the workplace, ALICE contributes to our communities through civic, social, cultural, religious, and recreational activities.

Despite working hard, ALICE households struggle to make ends meet. Their income is above the Federal Poverty Level, but it falls short of covering the basic cost of living in their communities.

ALICE is everywhere. Let's make sure ALICE is seen.
