Our aim is to foster financial knowledge for each and every student. We are advocates hoping to bring people already involved in this initiative "to the table", as well as new participants, to work together to achieve this goal.

The Financial Literacy Partnership's Mission Statement: To add one semester of financial education to the requirements for a high school diploma (and a G.E.D.) in the state of New Jersey. The Target Audience: young adults, specifically high school students. We are also working towards Somerset County being chosen as the pilot program for the nation.

Our Goal: To improve the lives of our children by teaching them to make the financial decisions that reduce the risk of crushing debt, foreclosure and bankruptcy. Financial Education is vital, because it is more effective, less costly, and less heartbreaking to teach our children to recognize a bad deal or a costly choice, than it is to undo the damage. Financial knowledge and mastery helps to create confidence, and a sense of power in every young person. They will be more responsible and savvy fiscal citizens.
