Overview

Since its establishment in January, 2018, The Newark Asset Building Coalition promotes well-being and financial stability for all Newarkers by increasing savings, reducing debt, increasing financial knowledge and skills, and improving access to wealth-building programs. By working through a collective impact coalition, more residents will be targeted, have access to and ultimately benefit from its activities and programs. The NABC is currently composed of a steering committee that is made up of key Newark-based stakeholders including: The United Way of Greater Newark, The Ironbound Community Corporation, New Jersey Institute for Social Justice, Newark Alliance, La Casa De Don Pedro, Greater Newark LISC, Urban League of Essex County, New Community Corporation, Clinton Hill Community Action, and United Community Corporation. NABC recently developed a one-year strategic work plan that serves as a roadmap and identifies the strategies, tactics, roles, and responsibilities as they correlate with the overall goals of the coalition.
