What is ? 
CFED (Corporation for Enterprise 
Development) empowers 
individuals and families to build 
and preserve assets by advancing 
policies and strategies that help 
them go to college, buy a home, 
start a business, and save for now 
and for the future. 
We combine the vision of a think 
tank with real-world experience to: 
Identify Good Ideas: CFED’s research 
finds ideas with potential for making the 
economy work for everyone, particularly 
those on the margins

partnership with diverse organizations 
across the country to promote lasting 
change 
Bring Ideas to Scale: CFED brings 
together community practice, public policy 
and private markets to achieve the 
greatest economic impact.

Editor's Notes

  1. For those who don’t know CFED, we’re a natl org based in DC that’s been working for 30+ yrs to expand eco. opport’y; … essentially helping more ppl get a shot at Am. Dream of owning home, going to college, starting biz and providing a better future for kids. We do that by identifying good ideas, … testing them out on the ground, … … & then working to take best ideas to scale thru PPOL, comm. practice & priv. mkts. Core value is ptnrshp—so all happens w/ groups on front lines of service delivery , pol. advocacy. That core value plays out in CFED’s role as the backbone organization for the A&O Network
  2. What is the Scorecard? State-level assessment of how families fairing & st pols to support fin sec & opp. We have been producing this tool for the past 12 yrs as a way to: -Build a movement for asset-based strategies and -Drive policy change
  3. JB Before we close today, we want to make sure you know about all of the resources you have going forward – related to integration, as well other aspects of asset-building policy and practice.
  4. JB Ways you can participate… LEARNING COMMUNITY: Facilitate learning groups – on range of topics, identified as priorities by members Run intensive learning clusters – which are competitively selected and more in-depth Webinars – on a range of topics Hold regional workshops – that focus in on issues of relevance in particular communities Conference & convenings – just had leadership convening in DC; will have ALC in Sept 2014 (I’ll say more about that in a minute) ADVOCACY COMMUNITY: Create opps to sign onto fed comment letters. Ex. CFPB – financial ed & regulating payday lending; HHS – ensuring unbanked can pay for insurance. Create opps for Network members to meet w/ your elected officials – at home or in DC. Help members build their advocacy skills to work at state or local level.
