The societal impact of poverty extends beyond economic scarcity, affecting family dynamics, social participation, and crime rates. Economically, it hinders education and employment access, leading to housing instability and economic segregation. Health disparities due to poverty result in higher infant mortality and mental health issues. Child poverty severely affects educational and developmental outcomes, while sociological theories explain poverty's persistence.
