10. SOUNDBITE (English) Sabrina Friday, Founder of Mother’s Nest:
“They don’t want to vote because they realize or they think is not going to matter. And as you just raised, we are 20 to 25% poverty rate. So they don’t care. And they won’t vote because they don’t think it’s going to make a difference. And as you saw today in one of our meetings that we had here today at Mother’s Nest, we had a speaker that talked the importance, and I myself tell them the importance of getting out and vote. And by the show of hands and participation – they don’t want to do it because they feel left out. They feel like nobody cares.”

14. SOUNDBITE (English) Sabrina Friday, Founder of Mother’s Nest:
“I’m left out because somebody has to see that the crime rate may be okay, but the rate of their income is not okay. When everything is so expensive and their education, their education level is another thing, but their income level just can’t keep up with the cost of inflation. And they’re wondering why the politicians, the elected officials are not paying attention to that.”
15. Volunteers sort through diaper donations

17. SOUNDBITE (English) Sabrina Friday, Founder of Mother’s Nest:
“I feel that all the moms here are in survival mode. Meaning if you want to help, then help. If not, get out of my way, and they are going to find a way. Find out what their needs are, and then you need to tell them how you’re going to address it. And then once you tell them that, then you can get them to the polls.”
