Birmingham opened IMC Financial Freedom Project Week with a Financial Literacy State of the Union at the historic Carver Theatre, and I was glad to share the stage with Mayor Randall Woodfin and Dr. Sullivan.

When a mayor makes financial literacy a citywide priority, it changes what families believe is possible.
