Creating a Native Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) is
becoming an increasingly popular way for Native people across the nation
to build stronger, more self-sufficient communities. Native CDFIs help
to promote local economies by supporting the development of
entrepreneurs and businesses, increasing homeownership, and empowering
community members to reach their financial goals.
