The Jump$tart Coalition for Personal Financial Literacy®

Financial empowerment begins with knowledge and – especially among our nation’s youth – that knowledge begins with education. The Jump$tart Coalition, with more than 100 national partners and a network of independent state affiliates, is working to advance financial literacy through communication, collaboration, and a commitment to effectiveness in financial education.
