Last night, Inclusiv celebrated Cliff Rosenthal's induction into the Cooperative Development Foundation's Cooperative Hall of Fame. Cathie Mahon had the honor of introducing Cliff and highlighting his incredible contributions to the community development credit union movement: from his vision and tireless organizing to create the CDFI Fund to the impact his work had on so many credit unions and people in our movement. Congratulations Cliff, and all of this year's inductees, on this well-deserved honor!

A great upcoming webinar featuring Inclusiv's René Vargas Martínez:
There are historic and systemic factors that have led—and still contribute—to climate vulnerability in lower-income communities. But there are practical solutions for clean energy, resilience, and equity. In 2024, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, in collaboration with Enterprise Community Partners and Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), published a volume of essays about the intersection of community development and climate resilience. Join New York Fed staff David Erickson, head of outreach and education, and Javier Silva, community development senior outreach associate; and Bryan Garcia, president and CEO at Connecticut Green Bank; Lisa Richter, managing partner at Avivar Capital; Maggie Super Church, director of policies and programs at Massachusetts Community Climate Bank, and René A. Vargas Martínez, director, Puerto Rico Network at Inclusiv for a discussion about solutions to address urgent climate and community needs that affect vulnerable and lower-wealth communities of color.
