Library Financial Education Webinar Series
Tune in to our monthly webinar series intended to instruct library staff on how to discuss financial education topics with their patrons. From time to time, we will also invite experts from other government agencies and nonprofit organizations to speak on other key topics of interest, too, so watch for updates.

Up Next: Saving for the unexpected, emergencies, and goals
April 23 from 1:00 pm – 2:00 EDT
Did you know that most people in the U.S. don’t have enough savings to cover a $1,000 emergency?* Whether you have low income or high income, most people can expect around $2,000 worth of unexpected or emergency expenses in a year. This presentation will highlight the importance of savings, the benefits of a savings plan and how to identify safe places to save.
