Non-Traditional Credit-Building Strategies

On May 27, 2015, Capital Area Asset Builders (CAAB) and partners hosted the second in a series of conversations about economic issues affecting DC’s individuals, families and communities and critical tools that can measurably improve financial well-being. Like our at-capacity and lively first meeting in February, and future sessions, this meeting considered current research and best practices. This "Credit-Building" focused on proven and emerging strategies to help consumers build credit and to increase acceptance of alternative approaches to credit-building. Participants had access to  a robust discussion about cross-sector credit strategies that can contribute significantly to a more inclusive, equitable DC economy.
