As a result of COVID-19, economic insecurity is increasing–especially among Black and Latinx households.  Organizations are exploring ways to deliver financial security programs with a racial equity lens.  Although there were efforts to deliver financial security programs with a racial equity lens prior to COVID-19, the pandemic has increased the urgency for this approach.

On February 23, AFN presented an engaging discussion about best practices, effective models, and emerging tools to apply a racial equity lens in the specific context of financial coaching. This discussion lifted up targeted recommendations for grantmakers to support the delivery of financial coaching with a racial equity lens.

Also discussed:

  • address key concepts in racial equity,
  • define financial coaching with a racial equity lens,
  • provide examples of financial coaching with a racial equity lens in practice, and
  • elevate recommendations for funders to support racial equity through financial coaching practices.

 

PRESENTERS:

Dr. Kira Hudson Banks, Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at St. Louis University and Co-Founder, The Mouse & The Elephant

Eric Ratinoff, Co-Founder, The Mouse & The Elephant

 

PANEL DISCUSSION:

  • Christy Finsel, Oklahoma Native Assets Coalition
  • Jeff Gilbreath, Hawaiian Community Assets
  • Luis Granados, Mission Economic Development Agency
  • Jackie Butts, Portland Housing Center
  • Michael Dominowski, Thrivent
