Closing the Wealth Gap: What Role Can Financial Education Play?

Webinar Date: February 9, 2022

Description: The most recent data from the Federal Reserve Bank indicates that the median wealth of Black families is less than 15 percent that of White families. During this webinar led by Hilary Hunt, coordinator of the Making Cents Project, we will explore the data and dive into the root causes of the wealth gap — both historic and ongoing. Opportunities for financial educators to address the wealth gap in school will also be considered. This webinar is designed for K-12 educators and administrators.
