CDFIs have driven billions of dollars into communities for projects like affordable housing, infrastructure development, and small to medium loans for businesses. In this session we will discuss how the GCEI approach aligns with equity goals in the CDFI industry and identify steps CDFIs can take to respond to, address, and be accountable to the visions, needs, and aspirations of the communities.
