Our Program
Our program plans to study and identify the feasibility and effectiveness of a mobile financial capability intervention. This will be used to understand the impact of financial behavior on stress.
There are significant racial and ethnic disparities in financial knowledge, financial behavior, and financial well-being. By focusing our research on the Latinx community, our intervention aims at diminishing these racial and ethnic disparities through knowledge building and behavioral change.
Our Focus
Feasibility
Continuous discussion with stakeholders and community members to ensure material is being easily accessed and the financial coaching program is understandable.
Effectiveness
Following up with stakeholders and community members ensuring retention of knowledge over extended periods of time along with the implementation and application concepts learned.
