Week 4: Teach Youth About Preparedness

  • Youth are an important part of building a national culture of preparedness; children under the age of 18 make up nearly one-quarter of the entire U.S. population.
  • Promote good financial saving practices by providing clear steps to saving, budgeting, setting and meeting financial goals.
  • The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has additional resources online to teach youth financial capability.
