\u201cGreat occasions do not make heroes or cowards; they simply unveil them to our eyes. Silently and imperceptibly, as we wake or sleep, we grow strong or weak; and at last some crisis shows what we have become.\u201d<\/em> Brooke Foss Westcott<\/em><\/p>\n

There is opportunity in crisis. An opportunity to grow and learn; an opportunity to connect our values with our mission; an opportunity to put financial well-being at the center of our strategy so we can live that mission; and an opportunity to engrain diversity, equity and inclusion into our work.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s what folks do<\/strong> with their money and how they feel <\/strong>about their money. Financial health and well-being are deeply connected to every other part of life \u2013 housing, access to food, transportation, education, healthcare, etc.\u00a0<\/p>\n
