This pdf is part of a packet sent over by NEUAC following the June 8 and 9 conference of this year, 2021. Through this 'poverty simulator' conference attendees are asked to place themselves in a situation with limited budgeting, having to choose between accessing diverse services and where to spend money. While very simplistic and reductionist, this scheme forces many into a mindset of havign to sacrifice some needs to pay and access others.
