APN Blueprint
The network is guided by a "Blueprint To Reduce Poverty" which is determined and periodically reviewed by Network members. This blueprint outlines specific area of focus and strategy and helps the Network identify how and where its efforts are most needed and might be most effective. This blueprint identifies nine areas of priority advocacy:
- Ensuring decent affordable housing;
- Providing effective support for low-income workers and their families;
- Providing an effective safety net for all individuals and families;
- Ensuring comprehensive health care;
- Protecting low-income consumers;
- Ensuring effective implementation of state constitutional rights to a thorough and efficient education;
- Enacting comprehensive immigration reform;
- Reforming criminal justice policy; and
- Making communities with current concentrations or lower-income or vulnerable people viable places to live.
