8 Why Financial Education and Savings? Having a savings account, a college education, a home, work skills, or a small business can help individuals and families: live securely today; weather difficult financial times and cash shortages; Avoid predatory lenders/cycles of poverty; plan for the future; and pass assets on to the next generation.
9 PROSPERITY GRID = POLICIES, INSTITUTIONS, ORGANIZATIONS DELIVER ECONOMIC SECURITY Connecting Households and Communities to Economic Opportunity
10 Research Shows Assets can make the difference between getting by and getting ahead. Increasingly, we are recognizing the need to address asset inequality, which is much greater than income inequality, in order to address poverty long-term. Connecting Households and Communities to Economic Opportunity
11 WORKING DOES NOT GUARANTEE ECONOMIC SECURITY FOR MANY NORTH CAROLINIANS More than ¾ of NC jobs pay below the Living Income Standard (204% of poverty level) 42% of NC workers lack paid sick days 18.9% lack health insurance 60% lack an employerprovided pension
12 One in five households live in asset poverty with insufficient savings to remain about the federal poverty level for three months without earned income. Action for Children North Carolina
13 The unbanked in North Carolina There are an estimated 472,000 households in North Carolina that do not have any kind of bank or credit union account. Source:EstimatesfromthePewCharitableTrust ssafebankingopportunitiesproject,basedon datafromtheu.s.censusbureau,thefederalreserve s2004surveyofconsumerfinances,andthenorth CarolinaCommissionerofBanks.
14 The unbanked in North Carolina According to the Brookings Institution, the cost of not being banked, and using alternative financial products, is approximately $40,000 over a working career.
15
16 All Americans should have the opportunity to make the choices that allow them to live a long, healthy life, regardless of their income, education or ethnic background.

36 MDC, Durham, NC Working Families Success Strategy College Implementation Guide This implementation guide is designed to be used by community college leaders, faculty and staff who are interested in starting or expanding a Working Families Success effort at their institution. The guide can be read from start to finish or accessed at different points depending how far along your college is.
37 Thinking about how to do the outreach/services/implementation REFER PARTNER DO-IT-YOURSELF
38 REFER--Less resource intensive, relies on the capacity of other organizations Clients travel to another location, limiting take-up of services Partners may have different goals and outcomes Services may not be a good fit for clients
39 PARTNER-Deeper relationships maximizes strengths of each organization, sharing clients; Co-location (one-stop) increases uptake of services; Co-branding with other organizations and centralized services for a holistic approach Compromise and give up autonomy Partnerships take time to establish
40 Do-It-Yourself: Ensure that goals and outcomes meet your school s mission and services can be provided in one location Resource intensive to build capacity Staff support and training Community duplication of services
41 What can you do? What are the needs in your community and who does that assessment? Map the landscape who does what? Attend community meetings Meet with faculty and administrators Enlist students muscles
