Bridging Financial Education Gaps for All Age Groups: Michelle Dobbins
Throughout the past decade, I’ve witnessed a significant and growing demand for financial literacy resources, particularly from our members and local school systems. The gap in financial education continues to widen, and it’s clear that accessible, high-quality training is more essential than ever.
My mission is to help bridge that gap by equipping people of all ages, but especially youth and young adults, with the knowledge and tools they need to build financial confidence and independence. I believe financial wellness is a cornerstone of personal empowerment, and I’m deeply committed to supporting others on their journey toward informed and responsible financial decision-making.
I’m honored to serve on the Financial Educators Council’s Advisory Board for Georgia, and I look forward to collaborating with others to strengthen financial health across our communities.
