When asked “If you could change one policy around #FinancialLiteracy, what would it be?” Jacqueline Howard, Society for Financial Education & Professional Development, Inc. (SFEPD) Board Member and senior director of #FinancialHealth and Wellness at Ally Financial Group, had this to say: “When I think of the policies that can be changed around financial literacy, I go back to education.

The problem with it is, as a teacher, when the students leave high school, we can’t really track them, so it’s up to them to come back and talk to us and tell us what impact this has had on them.” Full interview: https://bit.ly/3XE0KPL #FinancialLiteracy #FinancialWellBeing
