More than two thousand New Brunswick residents have participated in public meetings to help develop a province-wide poverty reduction plan. Social Development Minister Mary Schryer says they had a great participation rate.

Bringing the pieces together will develop a high-quality plan by the end of the year to reduce and prevent poverty. The dialogue phase was completed earlier this week in Fredericton with the last of 16 public sessions held across the province including Saint John. New Brunswickers also contributed by sharing their thoughts online, or by submitting briefs and letters.
