What is CDFI Coalition?
The CDFI Coalition serves as the unified, national voice for Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs). Established in 1992, its core mission is to champion fair access to financial resources for underserved populations and communities throughout the United States. The organization was founded by a collective of nonprofit entities and activists who recognized the persistent deficit in financing capital available for distressed urban neighborhoods and impoverished rural areas. By advocating for policy changes and fostering collaboration among CDFIs, the Coalition aims to bridge this financial gap and promote economic development.
