Elizabeth Kneebone talked about her book Confronting Suburban Poverty in America, which found that the vast majority of the poor in the U.S. live in the suburbs of major metropolitan areas, rather than cites. She also responded to telephone calls and electronic communications. Among the issues she discussed were the reasons suburban poverty was increasing, and possible solutions to alleviate poverty and encourage access to economic opportunity.
