How Jump$tart Washington Can Help

It is critical that Washington citizens be educated about their finances. Credit options abound in our society, and financial mistakes can be costly. Jump$tart Washington provides a clearinghouse of information and resources around the state to educate our communities. If you are interested in partnering with us for help in your community, please contact us.

To learn more about what policymakers can do to improve financial literacy, you can read “Financial Literacy: A Primer for Policymakers” written by Heather Morton on behalf of the National Conference of State Legislators in April 2005. A downloadable version of this report can be found on the national Jump$tart site in the Clearinghouse section (https://www.jumpstart.org/download.cfm).
