Update on Children’s Development Account Initiativies and State Policy Opportunities
Wednesday August 27, 2009, 10:00-11:00am PST (1:00-2:00pm EST).

Some of the most respected leaders of the asset-building field like Michael Sherraden, Ray Boshara and Lisa Mensah believe that Child Development Accounts (CDAs) are the “marquee idea” of the asset-building field. The first harvest of results and lessons from CDA demonstration efforts include the SEED Initiative – made possible by several members of the Asset Funders Network and the Jim Casey Youth Opportunities Initiative. Moreover, interest in and activity around CDAs are growing palpably at the federal, state and local levels. The opportunities in front of us are huge. Join us on August 27th as Carl Rist and Bob Friedman of CFED provide an update and frame for discussion on some key CDA lessons as well as local, state and federal initiatives and opportunities in the offing.
