About this Event
The Louisiana Asset Funders Network (LA AFN) invites you to join Wealth for All: Advancing Financial Health for Prosperous Louisiana.
An Inaugural Gathering for Financial Health Leaders in Louisiana.
For the first time, the Louisiana Asset Funders Network is bringing together financial coaches and counselors, financial institutions, funders, and financial health leaders across Louisiana to define the future of financial health and equitable wealth-building. This event is built by financial health leaders through the leadership of the Louisiana Asset Funders Network's Members and Financial Coaching Cohort.
Louisiana is at a pivotal moment - nearly 51% of Louisianans fall into the ALICE category (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed), meaning they struggle to afford necessities despite working hard. Financial health is a fundemental pillar of economic stability, ensuring that individuals and families have the knowledge, resources, and support necessary to navigate financial challenges, build assets, and create lasting wealth.
Key Topics Include:
- Breaking Barriers: Small Business Growth & Access to Capital
- Wealth-Building Strategies for the Future: 21st-Century Investing & Financial Planning
- Closing the Housing Gap: Equitable Homeownership & Retention Solutions
- How 2025 Federal & State Legislation Will Shape Financial Well-Being
- Strengthening CDFI Partnerships for Economic Growth
Audience: Louisiana financial coaches, CDFIs, financial institutions, and funders.
When: Tuesday, October 14, 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM CST.
Where: The Valdry Center, Baton Rouge
