AFI is the largest Federal funding source for Individual Development
Account (IDA) programs.  The AFI program provides funding for non-profit
organizations, qualified state and local governments, community
development credit unions, and other community-based organizations to
provide IDAs for qualified individuals in their area. Each participant
sets up an individual savings account that receives matched funding from
the federal government and another source. The funds can be used for
furthering education, purchasing a home, or starting a business.

 

More information on the AFI program is available online at:

http://www.acf.hhs.gov/assetbuilding/ or http://idaresources.org/ or by
contacting the AFI Resource Center by emailing info at idaresources.org or
