How to use underprivileged in a sentence?

  1. Maja Niksic:

    The elderly might benefit more from educational campaigns aimed at improving their understanding of potential symptoms of cancer, and, perhaps, differentiating these from other age-specific disorders, such as osteoarthritis, both groups( the underprivileged and the elderly) need to have affordable and appropriate transport options to reach health services.

  2. Abby Bartolick:

    I really do think that Stacey [Abrams] would be a better fit, i think she has a better understanding of what we need to do moving forward, not only to combat inflation but to work with the underprivileged people.

  3. Terrisa Bukovinac:

    Rep. Pressleys attempt to paint a truly life-saving amendment, one designed specifically to protect black, brown, and underprivileged people from being coerced by the state into choosing abortion, is severely problematic, the Hyde amendment has saved more than 2 million lives that are disproportionately black and brown. Suggesting that these people are better off dead is itself an expression of the white supremacist ideals that gave birth to the abortion industry in the first place! The American people deserve better than state sanctioned violence against their own offspring and the majority of Democrats agree. Taking a position against Hyde is a losing one.

  4. Eric Dickson:

    Intentional effort needs to be made to assure that the communities at greatest risk, including people living in poverty and people of color, have access to the vaccine and the information needed to make an informed decision, if this vaccine is disproportionately delivered [and] underserved and underprivileged communities are excluded, we will have failed…again.

  5. Judge Robinson:

    It is uncontroverted that PPKM and PPSLR serve hundreds of underprivileged women in the State of Kansas, it is in the public interest to allow these individuals to be treated by the qualified provider of their choice, and to have that provider reimbursed under Medicaid pending a trial on the merits in this case.
