Chloe McKenzie’s body of work—beginning with her time as NEFE’s first Visiting Scholar— demonstrates a deep commitment to exploring critical questions and addressing gaps within financial education. Her history with financial literacy (which she defines as “complex”) has given her the unique opportunity and initiative to explore the impact of financial trauma on marginalized communities.
In her “Silence is Violence” podcast series, and accompanying resource materials, Chloe continues to provide results of her research exploring the financial trauma of Black women and how financial education must continually evolve to achieve the positive impact it intends. This work can provide a foundation for understanding how economic systems and societal structures shape financial well-being.
It is our collective hope that this engaging, high-quality content will provide decision-makers at all levels to consider how to advance equitable and inclusive approaches throughout the field.
