In response to the growing demand for financial literacy resources and research in Higher Education, COHEAO recently published a Financial Literacy Whitepaper entitled: "Financial Literacy on Campus : Raising Awareness, Creating and Developing Programs, and Improving Effectiveness."

The Whitepaper was co-authored by the following people:

• Carl Perry, Senior Vice President with Progressive Financial Services

• Andrea Pellegrini, Assistant Director of University of Illinois Student Money Management Center (SMMC)
• Kris Alban, Vice President of iGrad - a leading provider of financial literacy curriculum

COHEAO's Financial Literacy Whitepaper chronicles the development and targeting of financial literacy programs on campus, key components to optimize effectiveness of financial literacy curriculum, and the federal role on the issue.
