SUMMARY:Connecting Communities: Putting the Community Reinvestment Act to Work in Your Community
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is now available to watch on-demand. \n\n\n\nIt can be difficult for community-based organizations to fund projects and programs. But if they’re eligible for investment under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA)\, that could give them an edge.  The CRA encourages banks to support community development initiatives in low- and moderate-income communities. This legislation has been an important tool for driving innovation in partnerships and delivery models and increasing funding to eligible projects.   \n\n\n\nJoin us for a discussion with community-based organizations and bankers who have successfully worked together by developing CRA-eligible project proposals through the Federal Reserve’s Investment Connection program. During the webinar\, you’ll gain an understanding of how to identify potential partners\, develop mutually supportive relationships\, and shape proposals that speak to the needs of organizations and funders alike. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJennie BlizzardCommunications AdvisorFed Communities \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStacy ClaySenior Vice President\, Midwest Retail Lead\, and Director of Community AffairsFirst Bank \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAriel CisnerosLead Community Development AdvisorKansas City Fed \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCasey SorensenCEOPCs for People \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJames Wareham-MorrisSenior Vice President of Risk ManagementAlpine Bank  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSara MiddendorfDirector of St. Louis Builds CreditProsperity Connection \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Connecting Communities®\n\n\n\nReal people.
