What This Grant Funds

The goal of the Pension Counseling & Information Program is to reduce the risk of financial insecurity by empowering individuals through information, resources, and tools.

Successful applicants will also have a recognized history of serving older people who may be economically marginalized, with an emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
