Dear Community Partner,

Very few people stumble into financial security. While some benefit from generational wealth, most people who achieve financial security do so by saving and investing wisely over time. While investing is a crucial step toward building wealth, it is a step that most women and communities of color are not taking. A recent study by financial services company Fidelity found that a gap in financial knowledge and confidence could be the reason.

Join Consumer Action for a series of free 90-minute trainings aimed at narrowing the financial literacy and confidence gaps for women and BIPOC communities. Each Empowering Financial Wellness webinar will explore a breadth of topics, from establishing healthy financial habits and building savings to getting started investing and preparing for retirement.
