The AZ CDFI Network supports CDFIs because they are essential drivers of economic growth and stability across Arizona. In both rural and urban areas, CDFIs provide critical access to capital, credit, and financial services for small businesses, affordable housing developments, and community facilities. As a statewide coalition of community-focused lenders, we see firsthand how CDFIs strengthen local economies, support entrepreneurs, and create jobs. Continued investment in the CDFI Fund ensures that communities across Arizona have the resources they need to grow and prosper.
