About the African American Financial Capability Initiative (AAFCI):
The African American Financial Capability initiative supports communities of practice that tailor financial stability projects to the needs of six communities across the Pacific Northwest and the Midwest through the collaborative work of 30+ black-led nonprofits in Portland, Oregon; Seattle and Tacoma, Washington; Des Moines, Iowa; Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota. Each community of practice addresses the racial wealth divide with innovative approaches.
In addition to presenting findings from the AAFCI, Prosperity Now’s Racial Wealth Divide Initiative (RWDI) team showcases its unique approach to technical assistance for local organizations working to innovate economic systems through a racial equity lens. Lessons learned and successful concepts that can be applied to other efforts are shared publicly through local and regional partnership events.
