Join us on a monthly CDFI Coalition Advocacy Call focused on educating and engaging our critical stakeholders and elected officials.
Make sure you are up to date on what’s happening in Washington. These calls will focus on the federal budget and appropriations process: Continuing Resolution funding for FY 2025, Fiscal Year 2026 budget and appropriations process and other legislation related to the CDFI Fund and CDFIs;
Provide updated talking points and communications resources;
Solicit suggestions and peer feedback on engaging CDFI borrowers and beneficiaries to support this campaign and share their stories;
Share strategies and tips for engaging with elected officials and their staff;
Identify suggestions on resources and tools that could be helpful for your ongoing education and communications efforts;
Discuss how to engage other CDFI stakeholders, investors, and board members in our campaign; and
Ask CDFIs to share their successes and challenges in engaging with elected officials, staff, federal agencies, and other stakeholders.
We encourage you to share the call registration information with other CDFIs in your communities and states. Everyone is welcome.
