Researchers acknowledge that society has negative views about people living in poverty. Those views are sometimes shared by human service providers who are obligated to provide services to the poor; however, most research focuses on societal views. The purpose of this generic qualitative study was to gain an understanding of human service providers' perceptions of poverty. The current study explored how caseworkers, particularly those who do not come from an impoverished background, view their clients who live in poverty. To guide the study, the following research questions were selected: (a) How do service providers who do not come from an impoverished background view their clients who are living in poverty? and (b) how do human service providers' views on poverty influence their relationships while providing services to the poor? Through face-to-face interviews, 10 participants shared their experiences by answering semi-structured, open-ended questions. Participants were individuals who lived and worked in a South Atlantic Region of the United States and either currently worked in the human service profession or have a background in the field. The individuals were between the ages of 29 and 61 and held graduate degrees, with one having a doctoral degree. Nine of the participants were women. Using an inductive thematic analysis, five themes emerged from the data. Those themes included: (a) understanding the definition of poverty, (b) perceptions of poverty, (c) societal views of poverty, (d) explanation of poverty, and (e) working with poverty-stricken clients. Participants believed their success in the human service profession and with their clients derived from growing up with a diverse population of individuals. Those earlier relationships helped to develop empathy for those living in poverty as well as develop strong client-provider bonds.
