Not only that, but generational curses and cycles could be broken, especially with minority groups. Everyone could thrive and begin to practice good financial habits.

The root cause of this is financial literacy is often not taught and avoided due to it's seemingly complicated nature.

My project addresses or works to solve this by implementing discussions, workshops, services, or even classes to address financial illiteracy and educate others.]]> 2021-08-08 04:04:50 UTC https://padlet.com/christylong04/t466ezelp0410i00/wish/1671899500 christylong04 https://padlet.com/christylong04/t466ezelp0410i00/wish/1671899501 My first SMART Goal is to host various of interactive workshops or discussions about financial responsibilities and opportunities (taxes, investing, retirement forms, etc) throughout the school year (dates will not collide with exam dates). To attract students there could be interactive games with incentives. ]]> 2021-08-08 04:04:50 UTC https://padlet.com/christylong04/t466ezelp0410i00/wish/1671899501 christylong04 https://padlet.com/christylong04/t466ezelp0410i00/wish/1671899503 My second SMART Goal is for the youth to have hands on practice with real world financial actions such as investing or paying taxes to fully test their abilities. There could be certificates handed out for those who are able to complete whatever financial activity with success.]]> 2021-08-08 04:04:50 UTC https://padlet.com/christylong04/t466ezelp0410i00/wish/1671899503 christylong04 https://padlet.com/christylong04/t466ezelp0410i00/wish/1671899504 The first step will be to gather like minded students or students driven by the same goal for my financial literacy activities.
