Clip from "In Good Faith" podcast

In this clip, Sister Maxine speaks with Presentation Sr. Richelle Friedman, director of public policy at the Coalition on Human Needs. Friedman talks about some of the alliance's past accomplishments, and the groups it works with.

"So, at the Coalition, we never think of the work we do as single-handed; we think of it very much in coalition with others," Friedman says, in a clip from March 2021. "And there have been some wonderful victories," including progress with the child tax credit and wage increases.
