CFPB announced:
Our national partners including representatives from library associations and local libraries, government agencies, and financial education practitioners will participate in the event. We’ll shape a national dialogue on how to coordinate the efforts of financial educators. We aim to amplify their work by making libraries vital financial education hubs in communities across the country.
The event is hosted by the Office of Financial Education as part of Money Smart Week. Â Mark your calendar for April 7 and join us for the launch!
