From Poverty to Prosperity is a podcast about what keeps people in poverty in America–and what it takes to break free. Hosted by Jason Janz, CEO of Denver-based career development nonprofit CrossPurpose, and Amy Hulst, each episode challenges conventional thinking about poverty and economic mobility with direct, unscripted conversations. Every episode brings together nonprofit leaders, researchers, policymakers, and, most importantly, people with lived experiences with poverty. Together, they explore what it takes to meet the American Dream–from meeting basic needs, to gaining the skills for a meaningful career, to building lasting economic stability and true economic empowerment. Through conversations about topics like affordable housing, workforce development, federal poverty guidelines, and more, the show highlights the practical solutions driving real transformation—and the people doing the work to make it possible. Produced by CrossPurpose, a nonprofit that has served nearly 9,000 people in Colorado on their journey toward stable careers and lasting economic stability, the show draws on more than a decade of frontline experience. Whether you lead a nonprofit, shape policy, or simply want to understand what helps people move from poverty to prosperity, you'll find the research, the stories, and the models that work.
