SUMMARY:Using Your Tribal Data to Chart Your Future
DESCRIPTION:Composite image by Lori Korte/Minneapolis Fed\, with images from Getty Images\, Ho-Chunk Inc.\, and Tailyr Irvine\n\n\n\nThe Survey of Native Nations represents a transformative approach to advancing the quality and availability of tribal financial data to inform tribal decision-making. Working with the Center for Indian Country Development (CICD)\, tribes that have completed the survey are enhancing their ability to analyze their financial data and communicate their economic contributions in data-informed ways. Built on Indigenous research principles of tribal data sovereignty and reciprocity\, the Survey of Native Nations leverages the Federal Reserve System’s secure data infrastructure to protect and steward tribal data. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will provide tribal leaders\, tribal finance practitioners\, tribal government services staff\, and Native organization leaders with the opportunity to learn how tribes are leveraging this unique data collaboration to advance their data practices. CICD staff will discuss the survey’s flexible design\, provide an overview of data-security procedures\, and share examples of the data analyses that participating tribes receive. Tribal leaders will share their perspectives on how Native nations can use survey results to advance their individual economic development goals. \n\n\n\nThose who are interested in exploring their tribe’s potential participation in the survey will learn how to connect with project leadership or request a briefing for their tribal government. \n\n\n\nSpeakers will include: \n\n\n\n\n\nFirst Assistant Chief Wayne Adkins (Chickahominy Indian Tribe)\, Chickahominy Indian Tribe\n\n\n\nPhil Gover (Northern and Southern Paiute\, Pawnee\, and Comanche Nations)\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis\n\n\n\nCasey Lozar (Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes)\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis\n\n\n\nH Trostle (Cherokee Nation)\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis\n\n\n\nVice Chair Crystal Williams (Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana)\, Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1:00 pm – 1:10 pm CT \n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome and Introduction to the Survey of Native Nations\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Casey Lozar (Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes)\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1:10 pm – 1:30 pm CT \n\n\n\n\n\nSurvey Overview\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Phil Gover (Northern and Southern Paiute\, Pawnee\, and Comanche Nations)\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1:30 pm – 1:45 pm CT \n\n\n\n\n\nA Data-Driven Future: Survey of Native Nations\n\n\n\nModerator: H Trostle (Cherokee Nation)\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis \n\n\n\nDiscussants: \n\n\n\n\nFirst Assistant Chief Wayne Adkins (Chickahominy Indian Tribe)\, Chickahominy Indian Tribe\n\n\n\nVice Chair Crystal Williams (Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana)\, Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1:45 pm – 1:58 pm CT \n\n\n\n\n\nAudience Q&A\n\n\n\nModerator: H Trostle (Cherokee Nation)\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1:58 pm – 2:00 pm CT \n\n\n\n\n\nClosing Remarks and Thank You\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Phil Gover (Northern and Southern Paiute\, Pawnee\, and Comanche Nations)\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\nPresented by the Center for Indian Country Development at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis\, with the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians\, NAFOA\, National Center for American Indian Enterprise Development\, National Congress of American Indians\, and United South and Eastern Tribes. \n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

SUMMARY:Investor Ownership of Single-Family Rentals in the Twin Cities Region
DESCRIPTION:Investors own an increasing share of single-family rentals over the past two decades. Today\, nearly one in 20 single-family homes in the Twin Cities region is investor-owned. While creating more options for renters\, the rise of investor-owned homes has reduced opportunities for homeownership\, particularly in some neighborhoods. To better understand investor ownership in the Twin Cities region\, the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis maintains a data tool that tracks investors’ activities within the metro from 2006 through 2024. Additional analyses reveal how the geography of investor ownership has changed over time. Join our webinar to learn more about both investor-owned rentals and the Minneapolis Fed’s data tool. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n9:00 am – 9:05 am CT \n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome and introduction\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Libby Starling \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:05 am – 10:12 am CT \n\n\n\n\n\nOverview of the Minneapolis Fed’s Investor Ownership Dashboard\n\n\n\nPresenter: Maxine Xu \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:12 am – 10:20 am CT \n\n\n\n\n\nKey Trends in Investor Ownership in the Twin Citites Region\n\n\n\nPresenter: Ben Horowitz \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:20 am – 10:28 am CT \n\n\n\n\n\nAudience Q&A\n\n\n\nModerator: Libby Starling \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10:30 am CT \n\n\n\n\n\nClosing Remarks\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Libby Starling \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

SUMMARY:College Degrees and the Labor Market: Long-Run Trends and Recent Challenges for Young Graduates
DESCRIPTION:For decades\, a college degree was a reliable ticket to faster job placement\, lower unemployment\, and rising wages. But something fundamental shifted around the year 2000\, and the consequences are only now becoming fully visible. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a discussion of new research from the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland that reveals a major transformation in the American labor market. Using nearly 50 years of data\, researchers Alexander Cline and Barış Kaymak examine how the economic forces in the labor market that once strongly favored college-educated workers have shifted over the past several decades—and how young college graduates have lost their long-standing advantage in finding jobs faster. \n\n\n\nWhat you’ll discover: \n\n\n\n\n\nWhy the unemployment gap between young high school and college graduates has hit its lowest level since the late 1970s—and why this isn’t just a postpandemic phenomenon\n\n\n\nHow growth in labor demand switched from “college-biased” to “education-neutral” after the year 2000\, ending decades of college-biased growth\n\n\n\nWhat advantages college graduates retain despite their struggles with initial job placement and why the story is more nuanced than “college degrees don’t matter anymore”\n\n\n\n\n\nThis research documents significant shifts in how education relates to labor market outcomes over the past several decades. The findings raise important questions about the changing nature of work\, education\, and economic opportunity. \n\n\n\nThe speaker will take your questions following the presentation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\nBarış Kaymak\, Economic and Policy Advisor\, Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland\n\n\n\n\n\nModerator\n\n\n\n\n\nAmy Morona\, Higher Education Reporter\, Signal Ohio\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, March 31\, 2026\, at 11:00 a.m. CT\, join the Chicago Fed’s Economic Mobility Project for a virtual event\, Human Capital in a Time of Low Real Rates\, examining how low interest rate environments impact human capital investment and opportunity. The event will begin with framing remarks from Dr. Tamara Hoff Pope\, Chief Strategy Officer for Chicago Scholars. Chicago Fed economist\, Jung Sakong will present findings from his paper\, Human Capital in a Time of Low Real Rates.
