Due to your work with people with disabilities, I thought you might be interested in this great opportunity to provide financial education for your clients. Please read the information below (attached is also a flyer with the information). I also included a PowerPoint for potential applicants. The deadline to apply is October 26th, so don’t delay. WID is hoping to gather a diverse representation for the cohort, so please share as you see fit. Don’t forget to mention wanting to Focus on People with Disabilities in your Cohort application.
