Greater Syracuse H.O.P.E is the designated Empire State Poverty Reduction Initiative (ESPRI) partner of Governor Cuomo. The initiative received $1.7 million from New York State to combat concentrated poverty and will report on the impact of funded partner agencies to do this work. The initiative is hosting a community dinner as part of a two-part report back on its impact and outreach which began with residents stating a need for people-centered solutions to alleviate concentrated poverty.
