The Financial Literacy Project, a partnership between the American Bar Association Tort Trial and Insurance Practice Section (TIPS) and Thomson Reuters, recently launched the first phase of its free online curriculum comprised of short, educational videos.
The Financial Literacy Project is particularly focused on reaching underserved communities and youth populations, but it is available and relevant to everyone who wants to increase their financial knowledge and skills.
The first phase can be accessed at findlaw.com/law/flp. Topics include building and maintaining a budget, understanding and managing different types of debt and tax planning and preparation.
People of all ages are encouraged to access, utilize, share and offer feedback about the Financial Literacy Project curriculum, which will continue to grow through periodic updates and is intended to be a long-term, evolving public service project.
Additional updates will include modules on understanding banking; planning for retirement; whether to buy or rent a home; purchasing a new or used car; investing to grow your money; and starting a business.
The ABA Tort Trial and Insurance Practice Section unites plaintiff, defense, insurance and corporate counsel to advance the civil justice system.
TIPS is a national source of expertise in tort, trial and insurance practice and brings lawyers together to share information and speak out on issues of substance and importance.
The section has more than 11,000 members and more than 30 general committees that focus on substantive and procedural matters in areas across the broad spectrum of civil law and practice.
