The CDFI Coalition, representing the nation’s Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs), released a report in 2019, honoring the 25th Anniversary of the enactment of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994. The report was featured at the annual CDFI Coalition Institute, a gathering of lawmakers, industry leaders and stakeholders that takes place each year in Washington, DC. The report showcases 67 CDFIs’ work in revitalizing rural and urban areas across the country and their success in creating economic opportunity, jobs, and services.
This is the second report of its kind from the CDFI Coalition–the first was released in 2014, which marked the 20th anniversary of the first CDFI Coalition Institute and the enactment of legislation establishing the CDFI Fund.
