[quote=Anonymous]Yes, it does "move the needle." I had family members who never graduated from high school. (I am white btw) The dad had a job and they had a couple children, but when they accidentaly had a third child they could not keep up. Their kids received free breakfast and lunch, graduated from high school, and all three were able to find jobs in trades that paid more than their parents and were able to get out of the cycle of poverty. All are able to support their kids, who are also graduating from high school and either getting job training or going to college. [/quote]
