74% of teenagers do not feel confident about their financial knowledge. In a society where a strong understanding of the economy, investments and personal finances plays an important role in shaping one’s future, this number is concerning. 

The Financial Education Initiative’s mission is to advocate for a standardized and mandatory finance curriculum to be implemented in every public high school. This would give all students, regardless of socio-economic class, the opportunities they need to succeed while also making high school more practical and engaging.
