Join us to learn about StudyMoney.us, an exciting new financial education website for people with disabilities and families that makes learning about money management fun, effective, and engaging!

The newly rebuilt StudyMoney.us, launched in May 2021, features new content, a new look, full accessibility, and activities and quizzes to motivate and challenge learners.

Attendees will learn about:

• The content covered in StudyMoney.us and why this information is important for the disability community;
• How StudyMoney.us can best be used by both learners and instructors;
• Fun, informative, and interactive activities available on StudyMoney.us;
• Additional financial education resources available for both learners and instructors; and
• A case study using StudyMoney.us and Cents and Sensibility with college students with disabilities.

Money impacts nearly all aspects of our lives…

where we live, what we eat, how we get around, the ways we spend our free time, and our health, to name a few. Yet most of us don’t know where to go to learn about money, get answers to our money questions, or find ways to help us make sound money choices.

With the right tools, you can:

• Take control over your finances,
• Gain greater independence,
• Confidently make decisions for your financial future, and
• Make your voice count!

That’s why Pennsylvania Assistive Technology Foundation (PATF) and partners have come together to bring you Money Talks, a free webinar series on financial empowerment for people with disabilities. At a time when many people are working and learning from home, this is an opportunity to increase your financial knowledge and skills where you are.

Each month, Money Talks dives into a different topic with information and resources needed to handle the unique financial issues that impact individuals with disabilities, including new issues that have arisen as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. If you are a person with a disability, a family member of someone who has a disability, an advocate, an educator, or a service provider, this series is for you. Each accessible webinar consists of 30 minutes of interactive learning and 15 minutes for questions. All sessions will be recorded.
