The World

The working poor are increasingly likely to be the neighbors next door. We meet two families who thought their middle class lifestyles were for keeps but who now rely on handouts to feed their families. Jamie Larson is a 57 year old grandmother from Columbus, Ohio. This week she went to the food bank for the first time. Our other guest is 31 year old Amy Lipps, a married mother of two in Lake Elsinore, California.
