Led by Jenna Severson, the Communications & Digital Manager for Economic Security for Illinois, this training will focus on the reasons policymakers should stop “solving poverty” & start giving people money. Based on the understanding that “financial literacy” being a relic of a racist financial system, this training will be framed by the idea of financial freedom.
