Programs are required to make financial literacy resources available to their parents, families and communities.  Many Head Start programs are choosing to implement in the FDIC’s Money Smart curriculum.  Money Smart is a comprehensive financial education curriculum designed to help low- and moderate-income individuals outside the financial mainstream enhance their financial skills and create positive banking relationships. It has a component for young adults, training of trainers, and computer based instruction.  Information may be found here: http://www.fdic.gov/consumers/consumer/moneysmart/index.html
