WASHINGTON – The U.S. Treasury Department today has announced the availability of a new online "Federal Financial Education Resources" directory that will make financial education information more accessible to government entities, community-based organizations, and the general public. The directory, which can be viewed online at www.treas.gov/financialeducation, will offer information on 25 separate types of financial resources and will catalog programs by name, sponsoring organization and subject area. "Throughout the federal government, agencies are sponsoring and developing financial education initiatives directed to a broad and diverse constituency, and for the first time, this wealth of resources is available in a single location," said Treasury Assistant Secretary for Financial Institutions Wayne A. Abernathy. "This directory is a great first step in providing access to financial education for all Americans."
