Economic Security
The focus of this category is to address challenges stemming from or contributing to poverty and economic insecurity. It seeks to support organizations promoting financial education and asset building programs and services; and to increase the availability of sound financial information and savings programs for individuals, families, and communities of color. We believe economic security and upward mobility can be achieved when low-income individuals with barriers to employment gain the skills and access necessary to secure stable jobs with opportunities for advancement. We believe individuals, families, and communities of color should have equal opportunities to ensure economic security and provide for their future.
