*This program is hosted by our partner, Asset Funders Network (AFN), who has extended an invitation to PNY members.*
For decades, we believed in Francis Bacon's declaration that "knowledge is power" when it comes to increasing financial health. Now we have ample evidence that financial education alone is not powerful enough to change behavior. So, what works?
Join us, along with MetLife Foundation and Common Cents Lab, for a one-hour webinar to learn how to identify, assess, and invest in interventions that are designed intentionally to shift financial behaviors using behavioral economics principles.
Explore
- How to identify, assess, and invest in interventions that are designed intentionally to shift financial behaviors using behavioral economics principles
- What the latest research indicates is effective
- How to assess the efficacy of financial capability programs
- Insights that will help you responsively and responsibly invest in financial capability programs
Candid analyses from two leading nonprofits will be shared from Mission Economic Development Agency (MEDA) in San Francisco and Harmony Neighborhood Development in New Orleans on which funder actions were helpful, and which were not, to their program development process.
Presenters
- Lucy Arellano, Director of Asset Building Programs, Mission Economic Development Agency
- Wendy De La Rosa, Co-Founder and Principal, Common Cents Lab
- Katherine Johnson, Executive Director, Harmony Neighborhood Development
- Evelyn Stark, Assistant Vice President for Financial Inclusion, MetLife Foundation
