Understanding poverty with 5 CYF personas

roughly

Destitution is a permanent risk because people living in poverty have fewer resources and therefore less economic resilience to changing life events. This lack of resilience is called precarity. In this briefing we will explore the experience of people living in all three bands of poverty, and how precarity constrains their opportunity to make positive change in their lives. It will also explain how Code Your Future works to increase each person's resilience with a package of financial, social, educational, and personal support.

&c

5 personas are likely: Carer risk of change , asylum seeker risk of destitution, single parent risk of homeless, gig worker risk of debt, long term unemployed risk of sanctions
