America Saves Week 2022: Building Financial Resilience

February 21st – 25th, 2022

Here’s what we know: you care about your people, both the people that make up your staff and the people that you serve in your community. Over the past two years, we’ve all experienced some significant setbacks. Currently, most everyday Americans, particularly low-to-moderate income earners, are focused on recovering from the economic effects of the pandemic.

That’s why America Saves Week 2022 has one single focus: Building Financial Resilience.

Being financially resilient is more than having access to money; it includes being conscious of your own financial landscape, being aware of available resources, and being willing to seek out and take advantage of opportunities that will support and increase your financial wellness.

Just like in past years, America Saves Week will be a time to encourage your community to do a financial check-in to get a clear view of their finances. Each day will have a theme that centers on one of 5 critical areas of financial wellness; only this year, we’ll approach those themes through the lens of supporting individuals as they build financial resilience. We’ll also address socio-economic barriers that affect the ability of many Americans to save.

Together, thousands of organizations and institutions will amplify information, resources, and tools that will allow individuals and families to take action toward building financial confidence.
