African American Alliance of CDFI CEOs
Reducing Burnout Among Women CDFI CEOs Through Capital Access
This project reduces burnout among women CDFI CEOs by removing barriers to capital access through investor networks, enabling sustainable leadership and long-term community impact.
The Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) ecosystem workplace relies heavily on debt and grant capital to support thousands of underserved business owners, nationwide. However, women leaders, in particular, have issues breaking the barrier to relationships and convincing capital partners to invest. This has led to burnout and attrition. The Alliance will establish a CDFI business accelerator program that provides training, funding opportunities and a broader and better informed investor network that is ready to fund.
