I may be taking a chance to dream in the sky about this, but I think it would be the leadership of a national public policy approach that moved from band-aid, disconnected, patchwork first aid to an asset base that moved upstream and said let's be preventive of poverty afflicting us. Specifically, housing and early childhood education and care are two powerful tools in moving to that upstream approach instead of the first-aid approach.
