SUMMARY:FedTalk: The Cost of Longevity: Long-term Care Insurance in the US
DESCRIPTION:Long-term care can be expensive. As society ages\, thinking about how to pay for care if needed is becoming a priority for many of us. Unfortunately people often find out too late that Medicare and Medicaid don’t cover all the costs. How can we protect ourselves financially against this risk? What is the current state of the private long-term care insurance market? How are Americans thinking about long-term care? And how is public policy tackling this issue? Join us for a FedTalk about long-term care insurance in the United States. \n\n\n\nFollowing the presentation\, we will take your questions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\nR.

SUMMARY:Manufactured Housing: Increasing Access and Preserving Affordability
DESCRIPTION:Manufactured housing is often cited as a potential solution to two closely linked challenges in the U.S. housing market: inadequate supply and lack of affordable options for those looking to buy a home. Historically\, the unusual way these homes have been treated from a financial and legal standpoint has diminished their potential\, both for prospective homebuyers and for the 4.9 million existing owners of manufactured homes. \n\n\n\nBut in recent years\, federal\, state\, and local actors have taken steps to alleviate these challenges. To highlight promising reforms\, strategies\, and innovations in the manufactured housing sector\, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia and The Pew Charitable Trusts Housing Policy Initiative are convening experts from a wide range of perspectives for a conversation on solutions. \n\n\n\nPresenters will discuss recent efforts to improve the availability of safe and affordable financing\, programs to address aging manufactured homes and community infrastructure\, and opportunities to improve the residential security and wealth-building potential of manufactured homeownership. \n\n\n\nThis is a hybrid event. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation

SUMMARY:Pathways to Progress: Workforce Strategies for Kentucky’s Emerging Adults
DESCRIPTION:Last year\, the St. Louis Fed’s Community Development team held roundtables to better understand the needs of our region’s workforce\, and community leaders from across Kentucky offered their views. This event builds on relationships formed during that process and leverages analysis to foster a discussion about structural barriers to labor force participation in the region. \n\n\n\nIn 2022\, 17\,500 young adults (ages 16-24) in the Louisville region were not working or in school. However\, programs that could help shape future workforce trends are showing progress. \n\n\n\nJoin us to hear from business and industry leaders\, community organizations and educational partners from across the state who have deployed successful approaches to addressing many of the challenges that hinder young adults from participating more fully in the labor market\, such as those involving housing\, transportation and child care. Speakers will share how they are working together to expand opportunities for Kentucky’s young adults. \n\n\n\nYou will have an opportunity to submit questions for a Q&A session in advance during the registration process. Lunch will be served. There is no charge to attend\, but registration by May 24 is required. \n\n\n\nFor more information\, contact the St. Louis Fed’s Community Development staff at communitydevelopment@stls.frb.org. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\nMichael Gritton\, KentuckianaWorks\n\n\n\nAlisia McClain\, TECH-nique Inc.\n\n\n\nNicole McGill\, The Spot: Young Adult Opportunity Center\n\n\n\nTelly Sellars\, Elizabethtown Community and Technical College\n\n\n\nStephen Ybarzabal\, Paducah Innovation Hub\n\n\n\nSeema Sheth\, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis\n\n\n\nFaith Weekly\, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis\n\n\n\nWilliam M. Rodgers III\, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis\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\n11:30 am CT \n\n\n\n\n\nLunch and Networking\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12:00 pm CT \n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome\n\n\n\nSeema Sheth\, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n12:05 pm – 12:25 pm CT \n\n\n\n\n\nWorkforce Roundtable Findings\n\n\n\nFaith Weekly & William M.

SUMMARY:Rural Economic Development Summit: Broadband Infrastructure and Workforce Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:Broadband infrastructure is crucial for rural communities in today’s digital economy. Broadband connects people to education\, jobs\, healthcare\, and other essential services. But a shortage of skilled workers to build and maintain broadband infrastructure poses a significant challenge\, threatening to widen the digital divide in underserved and unserved regions and limiting opportunities for economic growth and innovation in rural communities.With an unprecedented level of federal broadband funding on its way to communities for infrastructure\, there is a need to build community capacity and local labor forces to effectively leverage it. Strategically addressing the workforce shortage is essential for bridging this gap and ensuring equitable access to digital resources\, empowering rural economies to compete in the global market. \n\n\n\nThe Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia and the Center for Rural Pennsylvania invite you to a rural economic development summit to explore this important topic.View the program agenda. \n\n\n\nWhy Attend?At this one-day convening\, we’ll focus on innovative and equitable broadband infrastructure development strategies. You’ll learn about opportunities to strengthen workforce pipelines and foster greater coordination among partners\, as well as proven solutions that have worked in communities across the country.  \n\n\n\nJoin panelists and your peers to share your insights\, discuss policies and best practices\, and learn ways to address the workforce shortage by investing in training programs and incentivizing workforce development. Add your voice to the conversation to unlock the full potential of broadband infrastructure to increase connectivity and drive prosperity in your area.Who Should Attend?This gathering is for rural economic and workforce development leaders\, nonprofit leaders working in communities with limited broadband connectivity\, government representatives\, funders\, and other rural decision-makers who want to know more about best practices and ways to deploy innovative and equitable economic development strategies.Participation is free\, but registration is required. In-person attendance is limited\, so reserve your space now. There is also an option to attend virtually if you are unable to attend in person. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\nThis is a hybrid event with in-person and virtual attendance options.

SUMMARY:Expanding Access to Capital for CDFIs
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, May 14\, 2024\, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York will host a hybrid event focused on expanding access to capital for Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs). \n\n\n\nCDFIs\, which are certified by a sub-agency of the U.S. Department of Treasury\, are mission-driven financial institutions that specialize in lending to low- and moderate-income communities. CDFIs have access to sources of capital that aren’t available to other financial institutions\, including technical assistance grants and long-term capital at below-market rates. But those sources of capital are limited. \n\n\n\nThe New York Fed’s Community Development team has been exploring how CDFIs can expand their access to capital to make more loans to low- and moderate-income communities. \n\n\n\nSpeakers at the event will explore the current state of capital access for CDFIs\, including origination and sale of loans by CDFIs; discuss the challenges and opportunities for the industry to expand; and give an overview of potential policy initiatives. \n\n\n\nIn-person registration closes at 11:59 pm on Thursday\, May 9\, 2024. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\nThis is a hybrid event with in-person and virtual attendance options.

SUMMARY:Connecting Communities: The Changing Landscape of In-person Banking
DESCRIPTION:Implications for Financial Institutions\, Regulators\, and Communities\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is now available to watch on-demand. \n\n\n\nBank branches in the US have been closing steadily for over a decade\, but that trend accelerated during the pandemic. Online and digital banking may be out of reach for those without digital devices\, broadband\, and digital literacy skills. A lack of access to physical banking services can create banking deserts\, or geographical areas where there is a significant lack of access to traditional bank branches. Lack of access to physical branches may create challenges for lower-income\, rural\, older\, and disabled customers\, and can restrict opportunities to improve their financial health and build wealth. \n\n\n\nDuring this presentation\, speakers will share research on bank branch closures and the value of in-person banking. They will also talk about the Fed’s Banking Deserts Dashboard\, which analyzes where the deserts are (and could potentially be) located. The panel will also discuss potential solutions for grappling with these issues. \n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMike AndersonSenior Vice PresidentBankOnBuffalo \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlaina BarcaCommunity Development Research Analyst Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCaleb BoboSupervisory Examiner Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWes BurnsExecutive Vice President Midwest BankCentre \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMiguel LopezMarketing Strategy ExecutiveSouthern Bancorp \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\n\n\nPresented by\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.
