Financial Literacy Project

The Financial Literacy Project at Roosevelt House is generously funded by the United States Small Business Administration, with support from U.S. Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney. The Project aims to equip vulnerable individuals with the tools and skills necessary to effectively manage resources for a lifetime of financial well-being. To this end, the Project has developed and funded three initiatives: academic research on financial literacy, a free continuing education workshop series on financial literacy, and a film-and-discussion series focused on various financial issues faced by at-risk populations.

In addition, Roosevelt House co-sponsored a conference on Economic Development and Financial Literacy last April with the Roosevelt Institute.  To view the program, please click here. To view the agenda, please click here. 

This project is funded by a grant from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). SBA's funding should not be construed as an endorsement of any products, opinions, or services. All SBA-funded projects are extended to the public on a nondiscriminatory basis.
