SUMMARY:Exploring Flood Risk for New York City Renters\, Homeowners\, and Communities of Color
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, September 5\, 2024\, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York will host a virtual event exploring findings from two papers on flood risk to low-and-moderate income households in New York City. The papers\, released earlier this year by the Community Development team\, found that approximately one in ten low- to moderate-income people\, immigrants\, and racial and ethnic minorities in New York City live in a flood-prone census tract. The event will detail which New York City neighborhoods are most exposed to flood risk. Speakers will also discuss the financial impact of flooding on residents\, including property loss and damage\, lost labor hours\, and health costs. \n\n\n\nThis event will be of interest to researchers\, nonprofits\, community bankers\, policymakers\, and small business owners. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Resources\n\n\n\nFlood Risk and Basement Housing in New York City: The Impact of Extreme Weather on Vulnerable Housing Stock \n\n\n\nFlooding Impacts on Household Finances: Insights from Focus Groups in New York City \n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

SUMMARY:Connecting Communities: Economic Insights from Lower-Income Communities: Findings from the 2024 Community Perspectives Survey
DESCRIPTION:Watch on demand.  \n\n\n\nIn April 2024\, the Federal Reserve conducted the Community Perspectives Survey\, which focuses on economic conditions in low- to moderate-income (LMI) communities and the health of organizations serving them. Overall\, the survey found poor conditions for economic mobility in LMI communities. Access to housing and increasing cost of goods and services were among the top challenges. Respondents did note that continued availability of jobs was contributing positively to economic mobility. \n\n\n\nJoin Federal Reserve Staff and leaders from national community development organizations for a discussion about the findings and how these organizations continue to provide vital services to LMI communities and play a part in promoting economic resilience and mobility.  \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMichael ButchkoVice President of Business IntelligenceNeighborWorks \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVioleta GutkowskiAssociate Economist Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMelissa JohnsonManaging Director of State StrategiesNational Skills Coalition \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrank WoodruffExecutive DirectorCommunity Opportunity Alliance \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSydney DiavuaAssistant Vice President\, Community DevelopmentFederal Reserve Bank of St. Louismoderator \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation\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.

SUMMARY:Reforming Land Use Regulation to Encourage Housing Supply
DESCRIPTION:State\, regional\, and local governments all play a role in regulating the processes that govern the production of new housing. Their approaches have important ramifications for the housing supply and\, by extension\, the affordability of housing. Over the past few decades\, some states\, city councils\, and regional planning bodies have been rewriting their laws\, ordinances\, and planning documents to encourage more housing. \n\n\n\nAt this in-person event\, experts from around the nation and within Minnesota will discuss changes made and lessons learned from different approaches to planning\, zoning\, and other policies that influence housing production. \n\n\n\nSpeakers include:\n\n\n\n\n\nJon Commers\, Visible City and former member\, Metropolitan Council\n\n\n\nJenny Larson\, Three Rivers Community Action\n\n\n\nJeff Levine\, AICP\, Department of Urban Studies and Planning\, Massachusetts Institute of Technology\n\n\n\nMike Maguire\, Mayor\, Eagan\, Minnesota\n\n\n\nMary Kyle McCurdy\, 1000 Friends of Oregon\n\n\n\nJohnny Opara\, JO Companies\n\n\n\nKatherine Payne\, AICP\, Fair Share Housing Center\n\n\n\nJenny Schuetz\, Brookings Institution\n\n\n\nDavid Wellington\, Wellington Management\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

SUMMARY:The Broadband Affordability Burden: Exploring Research and Policies for Affordable High-Speed Internet for All
DESCRIPTION:The broadband affordability gap across households in the U.S. is one of the primary obstacles to accessing the internet. Of the 28.2 million U.S. households that do not have high-speed broadband\, 18 million are offline because they cannot afford the cost of an at-home internet connection. According to a Benton Institute survey\, 43 percent of low-income households are subscription vulnerable\, meaning they have lost service because of difficulty paying broadband bills\, find it very difficult to afford service\, or live at or near the poverty line.    \n\n\n\nThis webinar features research on the cost and affordability of high-speed broadband\, especially for low-and-moderate income households. It looks at the household factors associated with the broadband cost burden\, the implications of the end of the Affordable Connectivity Program\, and strategies for making broadband affordable for all.  \n\n\n\nSpace is limited.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe 2024 Digital Inclusion Webinar Series\n\n\n\nJoin us during Digital Inclusion Week for a series of webinars highlighting the latest research on digital inclusion.

SUMMARY:The Rural Futures Series: The Lay of the Land: Labor\, Zoning\, and Housing in Rural Communities
DESCRIPTION:In 2022\, at a conference in Grand Rapids\, MI\, the Chicago Fed helped create conversations on the challenges and opportunities rural economic development faces. Now\, we’d like to start building on those conversations with a deeper discussion on how rural communities are attracting labor with the help of creative zoning practices and housing policies\, as well as ways to mitigate the risks of economic development. Come learn about how communities are reimagining land use and collaborating with their neighbors on place-making initiatives that not only attract labor but also the employment opportunities that come with having a sufficient workforce in a region. The conference will also include a trip to Newton\, IA\, to see how Newton has executed some of these initiatives after the closing of their biggest employer\, Maytag. \n\n\n\nOver two days\, you will learn about the following: \n\n\n\n\n\nReplicable strategies for attracting and retaining laborGain an understanding of how rural communities can attract and retain a skilled workforce through discussions on current labor trends\, immigration\, and strategies to make rural areas more appealing to skilled workers.\n\n\n\nMitigating risk in rural economic developmentDiscover techniques for managing risks in rural economic development for investors and communities alike. Sessions will explore the roles of public funding\, partnerships\, and regionalism in creating environments conducive to investment and community trust.\n\n\n\nCreative housing solutionsExamine housing markets and the reasons for shortages in rural communities. Sessions will also explore creative approaches to addressing rural housing challenges through policy\, partnerships\, and community engagement. Learn how to encourage housing development that attracts skilled workers and supports community growth.\n\n\n\nHistorical perspective on zoning and land useUnderstand the history and impact of zoning policies on community and economic prosperity\, and then delve into how rural areas can rethink land use to promote sustainable growth and resilience.\n\n\n\nBus tour of Newton\, IowaParticipate in a hands-on learning opportunity with a visit to Newton\, Iowa\, where participants will see how community-driven initiatives are revitalizing the area and creating new opportunities.\n\n\n\n\n\nVisit the event registration site for the latest agenda details. \n\n\n\nRegistration Deadline: October 8\, 2024. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

However\, many Americans lack access to affordable home broadband or the skills and devices needed to use it.   \n\n\n\nRecent federal funding programs provide a singular opportunity to address these issues. This has driven an interest in relevant research on digital inclusion among policymakers and practitioners\, as well as academics and researchers. The heightened attention has also revealed research gaps in some areas.   \n\n\n\nAbout this series  \n\n\n\nThis webinar series is a follow-up to the Digital Inclusion Research Forum hosted by the Federal Reserve Banks of Atlanta\, Dallas\, Kansas City and Philadelphia in 2023.   \n\n\n\nThe forum serves as a platform to share digital inclusion research and provide context for practitioners to understand and apply research to their work. It also highlights opportunities for new research.   \n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

SUMMARY:A Continued Discussion on Financial and Payments Inclusion
DESCRIPTION:According to a 2021 study by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)\, 4.5 percent of American households do not have a bank account\, and 14.1 percent are considered underbanked. New research being conducted within the Federal Reserve System and in academia looks at existing barriers to financial inclusion and the importance of trust in banking and payments choices. \n\n\n\n\nWhy are people unbanked and underbanked in the US?\n\n\n\nHow do we define underserved in digital payments and banking services?\n\n\n\nHow does trust affect adoption of and access to digital payments and banking services?\n\n\n\nWhat do we know about people’s trust in financial institutions and nonbanks?\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a FedTalk to better understand these topics. (And before you do\, watch\, listen\, or read the transcript of the first FedTalk we hosted about financial inclusion and the unbanked.) \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\nPaola Boel\, Vice President\, Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland\n\n\n\nTerri L.

SUMMARY:Understanding Racial Disparities in Lifetime Earnings and Life Expectancy
DESCRIPTION:In economic research\, income and wealth inequality are often measured using repeated cross-sections of data\, but these measures provide an incomplete description of inequality when there are differences in life expectancy between demographic groups. On Thursday\, November 14\, 2024\, at 11:00 am CT\, join the Economic Mobility Project of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago for a virtual event\, Understanding Racial Disparities in Lifetime Earnings and Life Expectancy. Chicago Fed economist Ezra Karger will share his research\, which uses census data to provide the first long-run estimates of lifetime earnings by race in the United States. His work explores the importance of life expectancy in the measurement of Black-White income inequality and how and why this ratio has experienced dramatic shifts over the past 100 years. \n\n\n\nThe research presentation will be followed by a panel of experts. William Darity Jr.\, Sita Nataraj Slavov\, Damon Jones\, and Nicholas J. Hill will discuss historical changes in racial disparities in income and life expectancy\, moderated by Jonnelle Marte\, Federal Reserve and economics reporter with Bloomberg News. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation
