NH Jump$tart Coalition is organizing a statewide meeting of business leaders on Feb. 11 at the Grappone Conference Center.
The Forum on the Financial Literacy of NH Families and Workers will review creative ideas and proven strategies for sharing existing financial literacy and consumer information to residents of the Granite State.
Marc Hebert, president of the Harbor Group, Inc. will moderate the Forum. Dr. Michael Staten from the Norton School of Family and Consumer Sciences at the University of Arizona will keynote the event.
Additionally, a representative from the Office of Financial Education at the Consumer Protection Bureau in Washington, D.C., will describe their resources and efforts in the area of workplace financial education.
The forum will feature a facilitated break-out session with the objective that attendees will strategize solutions for addressing the financial literacy needs of their employees, and provide recommendations for improved financial literacy advocacy in the Granite State.
The event is a follow up to the first Forum of Financial Literacy which was held last February with over 100 business leaders in attendance.
The Financial Literacy Forum will be held from 7:30 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. Cost to attend is $30 per person and includes breakfast. Advanced registration is required. Business leaders interested in learning more should contact Dan Hebert at 731-1812 or dhebert@nhjumpstart.org.
