Overview

Many organizations in Canada and around the world are active in the area of financial literacy. Some are providing information, education and advice directly to clients, others are researchers interested in learning what works while others are government or multilateral organizations aiming to coordinate policy, practice and research. There are hundreds of websites with financial literacy information in Canada and abroad. With so many sites and so much going on, it is easy to get lost.

In this section, you will find the information on financial literacy that is most interesting and helpful to you and your organization. Here you will find an extensive range of free resources to help you and your community organization gain a greater understanding of financial literacy matters.

Visit often! This section will be updated regularly. Suggestions for research papers, reports, statistics, case studies and other resources relevant to financial education and vulnerable groups are also welcome. Please e-mail your suggestions or materials to resources@theccfl.ca Submissions are subject to approval to ensure fit and relevance.
