In 2021, the National Endowment for Financial Education and the Council for Economic Education hosted five financial education policy convenings to discuss the most pertinent issues in the field. Nearly 250 stakeholders from 44 states joined this invitation-only event. The goal? Provide an open forum to learn and listen about the opportunities, technicalities and challenges encountered when considering statewide financial education policy and programming. The outcomes from these convenings are the subject of this series of podcasts. NEFE President and CEO, Dr. Billy J. Hensley, and NEFE Policy and Advocacy Director, Raven Newberry, will sit down with some of the people involved with the convening’s development to analyze how the field can turn the lessons learned into actionable next steps.
