A good job isn’t enough.

That might sound strange coming from an organization built around career development. But higher income and lasting economic mobility aren’t the same thing.

Julie Stone of Gary Community Ventures joins Jason Janz and Amy Hulst to talk about what’s missing from the way we measure economic mobility—and introduces a new wealth metric focused on what families are actually building over time.

We talk a lot about ending poverty, but do we actually agree on what poverty is?

Is it a lack of income? Opportunity? Power? Is it personal, systemic, or both?

In Episode 3 of From Poverty to Prosperity, Jason Janz and Amy Hulst examine how we define and measure poverty—and what happens when a broken definition shapes the systems meant to address it.

We started CrossPurpose with good intentions, but that wasn’t enough.

The first two episodes of From Poverty to Prosperity go back to where CrossPurpose began, including some of the things we got wrong and the lessons that eventually shaped our framework for poverty alleviation.

Hear our take on why meeting immediate needs isn’t enough, why relationships matter, and what communities can do differently to make a bigger impact.

What does it actually take to move from poverty to prosperity?

Today, CrossPurpose is launching a new podcast: From Poverty to Prosperity: Redefining Wealth and Opportunity in America.

Co-hosts Jason Janz and Amy Hulst are taking on some big questions: What is poverty? What actually creates economic mobility? And what does it take for families to build lasting wealth?

They’ll bring together leaders, researchers, practitioners, and—most importantly—people with lived experience of poverty to challenge assumptions and explore what’s working, what isn’t, and what we still have to learn.

🎙️ The first three episodes are live now. Follow From Poverty to Prosperity wherever you listen to podcasts, and leave a review to tell us what you think!

Congrats to 86 new Leader graduates from our Denver and North Metro campuses - our biggest graduating class ever!

Their hard work over the last six months turned into new careers and futures with limitless possibilities.

Meet Andrew, one of our recent Aurora Leader graduates:

"Fresh out of high school, I knew I wanted a career in healthcare, but financial barriers made that dream feel out of reach. Instead of giving up, I chose to invest in myself, stay committed, and work toward my goals.

Along the way, mentors and peers encouraged me to keep moving forward and believe in my potential.

Today, I proudly work as a Patient Care Technician at HCA HealthONE Rose, building valuable experience as I pursue my CNA and work toward my ultimate goal of becoming a Registered Nurse.

This is only the beginning of the future I'm creating."
