+++ Washington Asset Building Coalition presents Building Assets -- Strengthening Communities Conference at Yakima Convention Center.  Advocates argue that without savings or assets, families are especially vulnerable to economic crises that could result from a fluctuating job market, an illness, or a divorce in the family. Having savings, in contrast, can provide a buffer in tough economic times. More importantly, savings hold the promise of breaking the cycle of intergenerational poverty by providing access to higher education or homeownership. This conference will explore ways to help individuals and families improve their financial management skills, increase their savings, and build wealth.
