Building Blocks for Financial Capability toolkits

Building Blocks for Financial Capability toolkits are designed for professionals working with people who want to learn about financial capability.  They cover a number of topics for adult learners such as credit, debt and making financial decisions.

How to use the toolkits

The toolkits are a blended format with both videos and in-person activities. The facilitator guide has instructions on how to run an in-person class and lead a discussion about the videos. Resources are intended to be used in a flexible way. Please note that in order to run the class, a facilitator needs technological resources to show the videos and print copies of the handouts.

Check out some of our videos below to see how you can help teach financial capability to many types of learners!
