Partnership with Cities for Financial Empowerment

The Cities for Financial Empowerment Fund’s mission is to leverage municipal engagement to improve the financial stability of low and moderate income households by embedding financial empowerment strategies into local government infrastructure. The Fund works with mayoral administrations and those interested in supporting them to implement innovative programs and policies—and measures its success accordingly.

City of Albuquerque & Cities for Financial Empowerment

Cities and mayors are uniquely positioned to deliver large-scale, high-quality financial empowerment services. The Cities for Financial Empowerment (CFE) Fund provides both funding and focused technical assistance to mayors and their teams to help them embed systemic financial empowerment programs and policies into city services to improve individual and family financial stability. The City of Albuquerque has worked with CFE since 2018 to ensure that Albuquerque residents have opportunities to establish their financial stability and well being.
