The Cure was an off-site exhibition in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Sargent Shriver National Center on Poverty Law. The exhibition featured artwork that empowered by radical empathy to reform systemic oppression, to facilitate justice and to nourish those who affect change.

The Sargent Shriver National Center on Poverty Law provides national leadership in advancing laws and policies that secure justice to improve the lives and opportunities of people living in poverty. Access to justice and equal opportunity under the law are fundamental American values. We ensure that laws and policies provide low-income people with access to adequate health care, decent housing, a safety net, and opportunities to achieve their full potential. We advocate for positive policy and systemic changes on a range of issues, including asset building, budget and taxes, community justice, economic justice, education, health care, housing, and challenges facing women and girls. Most importantly, we ensure that the voices of marginalized people are heard
