8th Annual Personal Financial Literacy Conference

Date: July 17-18, 2008
Location: Des Moines Area Community College - Ankeny Campus, Ankeny Iowa

Conference Goal

The Iowa Jump$tart Coalition is dedicated to improving the financial literacy of students so they are better prepared for real-world financing by the time they graduate from High School. Statistics have shown that many students leave High School without this necessary knowledge and end up falling into debt. It is the goal of the Iowa Jump$tart Conference to give teachers information, materials, and new ideas for their classes so they can help improve the chance of a student's future financial success.
