One out ofevery 2.8 Gary resident’s lives in poverty. The poverty rate for Indiana is 14.6% which meansGary has a dramatically higher percentage of residents below the poverty line when comparedto the rest of the state. Because families suffer from unemployment and underemploymentchildren have been left home unsupervised or under-supervised by siblings that are oftenmiddle school age. The city of Gary is in desperate need of OST programs that keep kids safeand engaged3.
