Project Twist-It founder, Mary O'Hara, talks about the stigma of poverty and its impact on young people. Shattering the myths of parents who don't care, Mighty Writers' Tim Whittaker talks about the popularity of his Philadelphia literacy program and parents who care 'dramatically'. And we hear the incredible, inspirational story of Richard 'Tre' Jenkins, who grew up in poverty. In his life, moving to yet another motel or shelter wasn't news, but one with a TV was a big deal. After years moving around, Tre found Mighty Writers where his love of writing blossomed. Tre mentored other students at Mighty Writers and has now achieved his lifelong dream – he achieved a full scholarship to Harvard in 2018.
