Subject: Looking for a financial education program idea?

Program idea: Introduce patrons to myRA
myRA was developed for people who don't have access to retirement savings plans at work or who lack other options to save. This may include small business employees, part-time and temporary workers, and the self-employed. Consider adding an introduction to myRA to programs about retirement planning, resume workshops, job skills trainings, English as a second language classes, or develop a program you can take to local work sites. Visit our program ideas<http://www.consumerfinance.gov/library-resources/program-ideas/> page for links to resources and suggestions about who you can include in your community for help.
