Did you know that 1 out of 5 people in San Antonio lives in poverty?
Even worse, 1 in 3 children is growing up in poverty in San Antonio. Many families are working very hard and still not earning enough to make ends meet. In response, leaders from C.O.P.S. and the Metro Alliance have launched a campaign to raise wages for many of the lowest paid workers in San Antonio.

In order to build a strong base of support, C.O.P.S. and the Metro Alliance will have a Fall Assembly for leaders and allies. Click here for a flyer for our Fall Assembly on November 16, 2014, 4 PM at Sacred Heart Church Civic Center, 2123 W. Commerce St.
