A New Report on the State of the Children’s Savings Field
The Children’s Savings team at Prosperity Now just released a new report, Sustaining the Movement: The State of Children’s Savings Field 2020. This fifth annual report provides a snapshot of the Children’s Savings Account (CSA) field in 2020, discusses trends in CSA program models and provides new information about the impact of COVID-19 on the field. The key finding for 2020 is that, despite the challenges brought on by the pandemic, the CSA field continued to grow and existing programs kept enrolling new children with total enrollment increasing 30% from 2019. Thank you to all the CSA program staff members who responded to the 2020 CSA program survey on which the report is based.
Prosperity Now will host a webinar on March 31st at 2pm ET to unpack key findings from the report and discuss how programs adapted to the many challenges they faced in 2020. This discussion will also feature Ikram Koliso, Program Manager for CollegeBound Saint Paul.
This webinar is free, but advance registration is required, so register today!
To learn more about the findings in the report, check out our recent blog post.
We hope you’re able to join us for the webinar!
Sincerely,
Prosperity Now’s Children’s Savings Team: Oliver Robinson, Shira Markoff, Erin Thiemann, Ariel Sankar-Bergmann.
