Kansas CDFI ForumDate: May 22, 2012 You are cordially invited to attend the Kansas CDFI Forum held May 22, 2012 at the Jack Reardon Convention Center, 500 Minnesota Avenue, Kansas City, Kansas, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Housing Assistance Council, the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Community Development Financial Institutions Fund (CDFI), and NeighborWorks are hosting the forum to encourage the formation of CDFIs in the state of Kansas, encourage partnerships with existing CDFIs in the local area, and increase CDFI investments to meet the needs of communities in Kansas. The forum will bring together banks, credit unions, nonprofits, government agencies and others for an honest and wide-ranging discussion on the role of CDFIs within a wider community development ecosystem. This forum will be of value to organizations supporting small business development, affordable housing, consumer financial services and more. Local leaders will share opportunities for CDFIs to invest across the state while CDFIs serving nearby markets will explain products and services they can offer. Experts and practitioners will discuss ways to build CDFI capacity within Kansas. A resource room will provide attendees an opportunity to have one-on-one discussions with federal and state agencies about how to access funding and technical assistance to support CDFI strategies. You can enjoy a lunch conversation titled “Networks of Support”. Our invited panelists will engage you in their careers spent in community development. Download this invitation for more information about the Kansas CDFI Forum. There is no charge to attend the forum. If you do not have access to online registration, you may contact Dorothy Brown at dorbrown@fdic.gov or 816.234.8084. |
