CSAs – Join the Campaign to Create a State Mechanism for Children’s Savings A...NeighborhoodPartnerships
Across the country, the asset building community is abuzz with excitement about Children’s Savings Accounts (CSAs). CSAs provide an opportunity for communities to invest early in the futures of their children by opening a savings account for each child. Evidence is mounting that CSAs are a powerful tool to increase early academic success, success in college and create lifetime savings habits. Oregon communities need a tool like this. Come join our effort to build a legislative campaign in 2017 to increase opportunity for Oregon’s children.

Asset building is a powerful tool that allows people to pursue their dreams, push past generational poverty and create economic security for their families. Yet for many taking that first step toward building a financial foundation is simply out of the question. What if there was a way for everyone to help support those first steps? We believe there is! No matter what your client base is, or what kind of interface you have with clients, this session will explore opportunities for starting conversations that can impact our client’s long term financial success – the gateway conversations that will open the door to prosperity. We will explore tools and resources such as Your Money Your Goals, the CFED Integrating Financial Capability Toolkit and Bank On Oregon that help support clients in finding their path toward financial resilience.

Workforce Investment Boards have for too long produced substandard websites. The message on the website is diluted because WIB's are trying to speak to more than one audience. Additionally, WIB's are not engaging the website viewer appropriately because quite frankly, they do not know who they are talking to. Therefore WIB's are not delivering information on the website that is desired by those who should be the target audience for the website (employers). This presentation helps workforce investment boards retool their message so that the message addresses the needs and wants of employers. Knowing who the audience for the website is will also allow WIB's to set measurable objectives regarding engagement.

6. Where the Money Goes 88 percent of the budget goes to pay salaries and benefits for employees, of which 90 percent work in the schools . The remaining 12 percent of the budget is for supplies, textbooks, fuel, utilities, and other expenditures. School-Based 23,518 89.7% Transportation 1,505 5.7% Central Office 1,196 4.6% Total 26,219 100.0%

One note, before proceeding with the plan to make the required budget cuts, is to note how people-intensive the budget is. Looking at the total General Fund budget, which totals $2.2 billion, 86 percent is spent on employee salaries and benefits. Of this amount, 89 percent of staff are assigned to schools. Thus, it is practically impossible to make budget cuts of this magnitude without impacting staffing and/or pay levels and without directly impacting schools.
