  2. PCC, Debt and FinLit • Demographics • PCC’s Response to CDR and Student Debt • Fin Lit Programs: • Online Mandatory Financial Literacy • In-person Financial Literacy • Grace Counseling Program • Delinquency Management

  4. Even worse under conditions of poverty • Scarcity (Poverty) • Generational Poverty

  5. Toward a New Model • We need to rethink the problem • A behavior based model: • Recognizes the effects of poverty on learning and cognition • Looks to expand the cognitive horizon over a longer period • Based on a life coaching framework to help folks fix their finances • Integrates financial aid, scholarships, career preparedness, personal finance • Middle Class Financial Literacy Is not Sufficient
